Social media users accused Apple Maps of erasing towns in southern Lebanon amid Israeli occupation – Apple says they were never featured on the platform.

    Before 2012 Apple maps was based on OSM, blog post about the change: https://blog.openstreetmap.org/2012/10/02/apple-maps/

    Since 2012 they use OSM on some parts of the World, you can read OSM attribution in the list of sources: https://gspe21-ssl.ls.apple.com/html/attribution.html

      Mmmm I don’t see Lebanon listed on that page, though this does point towards this being a post split change.
