• There are two different figures: Lebanese authorities cite 1.2 million affected while UN agencies tracked 842,648 displaced
• The displacement figure represents a specific crisis period in late 2024, not an ongoing cumulative total
• Sources cited were published before the session date of 2026-04-29, but the most recent available data from UN OCHA shows displacement had decreased significantly by January 2025 (112,076 people remained displaced)
