Shelling. Destruction. Unimaginable horrors. What Wahiba witnessed worsened by the minute as she fled the escalating conflict in Lebanon. Thousands of families face the same heartbreaking reality. They need urgent support. Please donate if you can:

Making sure that asylum seekers, in particular youths & unaccompanied minors, know their rights when they come to Europe is a priority for @UNHCRIreland . Count on Diane to engage with communities on what they are entitled to as they seek refuge in Ireland.

More than 50,000 Lebanese and Syrians living in Lebanon have now crossed into Syria fleeing Israeli airstrikes. Well over 200,000 are displaced inside Lebanon. Relief operations are underway, including by UNHCR, to help all those in need, in coordination with both governments.

Well over 30,000 Syrians and Lebanese have crossed into Syria in the past 72 hours. Emergencies are about responding swiftly to the basic needs of large crowds of people. But they are also, just as importantly, about those small, quiet moments of humanity and care. UNHCR staff
