3/5 Families are returning to damaged or destroyed homes, lost livelihoods & limited services. Prefab housing offers relief, but people need water & electricity to be able to stay.
Safe, dignified return means restoring essential services & livelihoods, not shelter alone.

2/5📍In Zawtar El Gharbiyeh, I walked through Imam Al-Sadr Public School. Its classrooms &lab remain heavily damaged from a direct strike.
Yet children are learning again, thanks to the dedicated director & teachers.
With winter approaching, restoring safe classrooms is urgent.

At Burj Qalaway in South🇱🇧, I listened to children back to learning. Their dreams reflect what they’ve endured:
Adam wants to help people with trauma, Hassan to rebuild as an engineer &Amani to tell the world what they’ve witnessed as a journalist.
Heartbreaking, yet inspiring

5/5 In Zefta,I met displaced families still unable to return home. Their needs remain urgent, even as recovery efforts begin.
We must continue assisting those displaced while helping communities rebuild their lives w/dignity. Humanitarian response &recovery must advance together

4/5 In Zebdine, I met women farmers whose cooperative was destroyed during the war.
They want to restore production, earn a living &support their families.
Supporting farmers helps reduce dependence on aid.

On #WorldFoodDay, we highlight the importance of ensuring access to food for vulnerable communities.

On #WorldMentalHealthDay, we recognize that mental health is a critical part of humanitarian response. Through the #LebanonHumanitarianFund, partners provide mental health support to conflict-affected and vulnerable communities 🇱🇧, ensuring access to care when it is needed most.

4/4 Important discussion with Bekaa Governor Judge Kamal Abou Jaoudeh on recovery priorities &pressures on local services.
With resources declining, stronger local systems &sustained partnerships remain essential. Recovery must reach affected communities across the #Bekaa

3/4What struck me in Aana was how much people want to rebuild. Two spoke of continuing education &finding job, others of their need for a safe place to live.
As collective shelters consolidate, families must have safe, suitable alternatives. No one should be left without shelter
OCHA Lebanon retweeted
2/4 At a collective shelter in Aana, I spoke with displaced families, each coming from a village, unable to return home &unsure when, or even if, they will be able to.
Their needs are clear: safe shelter, education, livelihoods &support for persons with disabilities.
OCHA Lebanon retweeted
🧵1/4 In Sohmor, West #Bekaa, I saw the extent of destruction &spoke w/residents who have lost their homes, shops &livelihoods.
People want to rebuild their lives. Restoring water, education, basic services &opportunities to earn a living is essential to making recovery possible
The humanitarian situation remains concerning as insecurity, including strikes and demolitions continues to affect communities. Nearly 330,000 people remain displaced as insecurity persists in southern Lebanon.
