UNHCR’s partner, SARC, last night distributed relief items & food to vulnerable families who recently arrived at Jdaidet Yabous crossing point.
The situation remains dire but we are maintaining presence at all 4 Lebanese-Syrian borders to respond to the increasing needs.

Israeli airstrikes in Lebanon are now relentlessly claiming hundreds of civilian lives.
And I am very saddened to confirm that two UNHCR colleagues were also killed yesterday.
On behalf of all us at UNHCR, heartfelt condolences to their families, friends and colleagues.

The escalating crisis in Lebanon is frightening. Thousands of people were forced from their homes today, in a region already devastated by war.
The toll on civilians is unacceptable.
Political leaders must bring solutions. An end to the hostilities is urgently needed.
