Over one million people have been displaced throughout Lebanon as a result of Israeli airstrikes and mandated evacuations. The humanitarian situation has left many individuals without permanent housing, with a significant number residing in tents or along roadsides.
Amidst these conditions, a monastery in Lebanon has reportedly opened its doors to offer refuge. The facility is providing shelter to displaced individuals who have arrived from the southern regions of the country, addressing an immediate need for housing and safety.
According to France 24, reporters Elena Volochine and Antonia Kerrigan recently spent a day observing the monastery's efforts to assist those affected by the ongoing displacement.
