Desperate Resilience: Displaced Families Seek Solace Amid Conflict
Nerjes Hassan, a worker with the Lebanese Organization for Studies and Training, and her family were tragically killed during an Israeli air strike in Buday, Lebanon. As displacement grows due to ongoing conflicts, communities like Deir al-Ahmar struggle to support the increasing number of refugees amid deteriorating conditions and dwindling resources.
Nerjes Hassan, a dedicated worker for the Lebanese Organization for Studies and Training (LOST), tragically lost her life along with her family in an Israeli air strike while seeking hot water and food in her hometown, Buday.
The escalation in Israeli strikes on Lebanon has forced thousands to seek refuge in towns like Deir al-Ahmar, where resources are extremely strained due to the massive influx of displaced families.
With winter approaching and supplies dwindling, the local population's solidarity is crucial, but aid organizations face challenges as access routes become dangerous and increasingly difficult to navigate.
