Benny Wexler, an ultra-Orthodox Israeli with foreign citizenship who has visited over 100 countries, has disguised his identity to tour the Lebanese capital's Dahieh district and the city’s last remaining synagogue.

Fearing discovery, Wexler took extreme precautions to conceal his Israeli identity. “From the moment I realized I was flying to Beirut, the fear kicked in. I couldn’t sleep at night and had to take medication for the headaches,” he said. “I booked my flight through an American travel agent so my Israeli IP address wouldn’t be detected,” he added, according to Israel’s Ynet news portal.
