Description

The nearest flag is of the Lebanese state, the following yellow flags are for Hezbollah. They indicate an area for the Hezbollah, which is Shia, between two largely Christian areas, Sin Al Fil and Borj Hammoud, the latter of which once had a large Shia population. The juxtaposition of the Lebanese and Hezbollah flag is a sign of the group's identity of not only being both Shia and part of the 'resistance,' but also an official part of the Lebanese state.
