Ad-Diyar (Arabic: الديار meaning The Home) is an Arabic-language daily newspaper published in Beirut, Lebanon.
History
Ad Diyar was first published in 1941 as an Arabic political daily[1][2] that is published in broadsheet format.[3]
The editor-in-chief of the paper is Charles Ayoub.[4] Leading Lebanese caricaturist Pierre Sadek worked for the daily.[5]
The circulation of Ad Diyar was 20,000 copies in 2003, making it the third best selling newspaper in Lebanon.[3]
Orientation
The paper is reported to be pro-Syrian.[4][6] In addition, the daily has close ideological links to the Syrian Social Nationalist Party (SSNP).[1][4] The daily gained significant popularity in 1987 when it publicly criticized the militia leaders.[7]
Ad Diyar was temporarily closed by Michel Aoun, then interim Lebanese prime minister and army commander, in January 1990 due to its clash with Aoun policies.[8] The newspaper resumed publication much later.
