The Lion’s Roar War also placed the construction industry in a complex reality of operating under a continuous security threat. Construction sites, workers, developers, and contractors were required to cope with both direct and indirect damage, work stoppages, safety concerns, questions of legal liability, and of course the issue of insurance coverage for damages caused as a result of the security situation.
