Islamic Relief Canada Lebanon Emergency Appeal

Hundreds of Israeli airstrikes have killed and displaced thousands in Lebanon. Help provide emergency relief today.

Islamic Relief Canada strongly condemn the horrific attacks that have killed and wounded hundreds of people in Lebanon, many of whom are women and young children.

Hundreds of Israeli airstrikes have torn through residential areas, with at least 24,000 residential buildings having been badly damaged or completely destroyed. Families are fleeing the south of the country in terror.

This latest escalation is likely to force even more families from their homes. More than 116,000 people in Lebanon have already been displaced over the past year, and many are now in desperate need of aid. These deadly airstrikes have only further exacerbated ongoing economic struggles, and there are fears that the situation will only continue to worsen.

“There is mass panic, families here are terrified and they don’t know what to do or where to go. Young children are among those killed by the bombs, and any further escalation will be absolutely disastrous for civilians.” – Islamic Relief’s Country Director in Lebanon

We are on the ground providing urgent medical supplies to healthcare facilities and life-sustaining aid to families.
