Bombings in Lebanon

Lebanon’s citizens are again caught under fire. As many as a million people are displaced as they search for a place of safety and there are fears of a major humanitarian crisis.

In our conversations, families in Lebanon share their experiences, once again, of living under attack and being on the move to stay safe.
