Lebanese journalist and actress Yumna Sherry dies at 55 in Canada

Lebanese journalist and actress Yumna Sherry passed away on Thursday, September 18, in Canada at the age of 55 after a battle with illness.

Sherry gained wide recognition in the 1990s and early 2000s on Future TV, where she hosted several popular programs.

Her work extended beyond television presenting to acting, with roles in productions.
