In light of the ongoing escalation of hostilities between Israel and Hezbollah, which triggered massive population displacement and crossings of people from Lebanon to Syria, the European Commission mobilised an additional €5 million to address the most urgent humanitarian needs of the people crossing into Syria.

 

 

The new allocation aims to scale up humanitarian support for both Syrians and Lebanese, helping displaced people and host communities to fulfil immediate needs such as food assistance, health and protection.

 

 

The assistance will be channelled through EU humanitarian partners already responding to the displacement crisis in Syria to ensure critical aid will be provided swiftly to those arriving.
