Upgrading works have begun on 75 shelters, including weatherproofing, partitioning, and WASH rehabilitation, with 23 sites completed so far. 🚑 Two additional hospitals have been added to UNHCR’s network in Beirut and Mount Lebanon to accommodate additional needs following recent strikes in the region. UNHCR is also procuring 10 ambulances to support the evacuation and transfer of critical patients, complementing Lebanese Red Cross and Civil Defence services, which are overwhelmed by the surge in demand. ⚖️ In Syria, over 48,000 individuals have received legal support at the Syrian crossing points through UNHCR and its legal partners, with assistance also extended to vulnerable Iraqis and Sudanese facing immigration challenges at the border.

A while ago, we launched our Frontline Fund – the most efficient and efficient and effective way for us to deliver emergency aid.

This means, we are uniquely placed to activate an aid strategy within hours of any disaster. ❌ We DON’T waste time or funds on taking teams to emergency locations – our partner organisations of local experts are already there now. We believe this is one of the most effective and tailored ways to respond to humanitarian crises.
