Anera is profoundly concerned by the closure of all entry points into Gaza, announced by Israel on Sunday, March 2, and immediately put into effect.

Press Release

Lebanon is facing yet another nightmare. The recent escalation of attacks from Israel has thrown the country into chaos, with families desperately trying to find safety. Schools have been forced to close, and roads are gridlocked with people fleeing their homes, unsure of where to go next. The coastal road is packed with displaced families—some stopping in Saida, others pushing further north—while uncertainty hangs over everything.
