In just 3 days, 58,000 people, including 16,000 children, have been displaced in Lebanon. Families are sleeping in cars, on streets & in damaged schools as bombs & drones loom overhead. We’re distributing blankets, water & baby supplies. There must be an end to the hostilities.

Children in Beirut’s southern suburbs & across Southern & Eastern Lebanon have fled their homes in the night, grabbing what they can to escape escalating violence. Families are terrified by strikes & drones. We’re providing baby kits, mattresses, blankets, and essentials.

Across the Middle East and wider region, the escalation of violence is having a devastating impact on children. As tensions rise, children’s lives hang in the balance. We urge all parties to abide by international humanitarian law and protect civilians. It must stop!
