Lebanese military pay and regional armies

The article discusses the situation of military salaries in Lebanon and the impact of the financial crisis on their income. Salaries have decreased significantly; before the crisis, they ranged between $800 and $1,200, but by 2026, they are estimated to be around $280 per month, relying on aid and unpredictable allowances. Additionally, the Parliament approved a temporary increase equivalent to six salaries for military personnel, valued at approximately $631 million USD at the official exchange rate. However, this increase does not raise the basic salary by the same amount; it is based on the old salary plus supplements. The situation confirms that this economic collapse makes soldiers' salaries insufficient to cover daily living costs, especially with rising prices for healthcare, education, and fuel.
