Most of Lebanon’s displacement shelters are full, UN says

U.N. officials said on Friday most of Lebanon’s nearly 900 shelters were full and that people fleeing Israeli militarystrikes were increasingly sleeping out in the open in streets or in public parks.

“Most of the nearly 900 government established collective shelters in Lebanon have no more capacity,” the U.N. refugee agency’s Rula Amin told a Geneva press briefing. She said that they were working with local authorities to find more sites and that some hotels were opening their doors.
