Lebanon. Does that make it a tripoint area?

this is near the de facto illbsy triarea
as outlined & mapped in message 11572
so i hope all that is working better for you now

your first berkeley map below is of de jure illbsy
as described & mapped in ibs number 75

& your second berkeley map is i believe just north of the de facto
illbsy area

the village of shebaa itself is indicated in cyrillic about 1
kilometer above the number 56 at the botom margin of this map

so the shebaa farms must be along lbsy just to the south of this
village
according to your news article
& thus probably more on the next map to the south than the one
you are showing here
