Lebanon at the 1948 Summer Olympics

Lebanon competed in the 1948 Summer Olympics in London, Great Britain, which was held from 29 July to 14 August 1948. This was the country's first appearance in the Summer Olympic Games, following Lebanon's independence in 1943. The Lebanese Olympic Committee was founded in 1946 and officially recognized by the International Olympic Committee a year later. The Lebanese delegation was made up of eight male competitors: boxer Michel Ghaoui, shooters Khalil Hilmi and Salem Salam, and wrestlers Bechara Abou Rejalie, Charif Damage, Ibrahim Mahgoub, Abdallah Sidani, and Safi Taha.

In its Summer Games debut, Lebanon failed to win any medals. Ghaoui lost his first bout in the featherweight boxing competition. Hilmi's best finish was 50th place in the 50 metre pistol event, while Salam finished 70th in the 50 metre rifle, prone event. Rejalie and Mahgoub lost their opening bouts in the lightweight freestyle wrestling and light heavyweight Greco-Roman wrestling competitions, respectively. Sidani dropped his second bout in the flyweight Greco-Roman wrestling competition, while Taha finished 6th in the featherweight Greco-Roman wrestling contest and Damage finished 4th in the lightweight Greco-Roman wrestling competition.
