Abstract
On Sept 3, 2012, Lebanon introduced legislation prohibiting smoking in indoor public places. Hefty fines are mandated for individuals and businesses that flout the law. A couple of years ago, Syria enacted similar measures—the first country in the region to do so. A visit from WHO in the winter of 2010 confirmed that the Syrian ban was indeed being implemented, but the events of the past 18 months or so make it unlikely that this is still the case. Neighbouring Lebanon is in a better position to police its smoking ban.
