'Catastrophic': Humanitarian emergency unfolding in Lebanon as Israeli airstrikes intensify

Haxi Meyers-Belkin is pleased to welcome Kevin Charbel, Head of Première Urgence Internationale mission in Lebanon. From his vantage point, the current airstrikes in southern Lebanon are triggering a new humanitarian emergency exacerbating the prolonged national crisis. The new attacks are once again plunging Lebanon into a state of war: significant civilian casualties and the displacement of tens of thousands of people, many of whom had only recently returned to their homes following the November 2024 ceasefire.
