Civilians and health workers in Lebanon are facing escalating dangers as attacks intensify across the country, particularly in Beirut's southern suburbs. Recent airstrikes in central Beirut have exacerbated the humanitarian crisis, prompting more residents to flee their homes.

The World Health Organization (WHO) reported a staggering 136 attacks on health facilities since October of last year, resulting in 212 deaths among health personnel, with 70 fatalities occurring just last week. This violence has severely impacted the health sector, forcing 21 out of 178 hospitals—approximately 13%—to either cease operations or significantly reduce services. As a result, access to essential healthcare has been drastically limited for the population.

In response to the ongoing crisis, health partners in Lebanon are actively supporting the government-led response to mitigate the effects of these attacks and provide necessary aid to those affected.
