"The ruined main synagogue in central Beirut is due to be  renovated in the coming weeks, after an agreement between various religious  denominations and permission from the Lebanese government, planning authorities  and even Hezbollah. Several dozen Jews still living in Lebanon will fund the  project, along with others in the Diaspora.  Renovations will include  mending the gaping hole in the Magen Avraham synagogue's roof and repairing the  chandeliers that once hung from it. The Torah ark and prayer benches will also  be refurbished to their former states."  In fact, the Hariri family through its share in Solidaire has been the main force opposing the renovation.
