Summary
| Description |
English: This image highlights Lebanon’s two mountain ranges, Jebel Liban and Jabal ash Sharqi. (Jebel or jabal mean “mountain” in Arabic.)
The two mountain ranges are covered in fresh snow. A few days before the image was taken, a late-winter storm coated the mountains with up to a meter of snow, said local news reports. The image also shows snow in the coastal mountains of Syria and Turkey. |
