France will provide 60 metric tons of humanitarian aid for Lebanon, French Foreign Minister Jean-Noel Barrot says.
“And what we have decided is to triple the volume of aid that will arrive this week. This aid will reach… 60 tons of humanitarian aid for the Lebanese, including sanitation kits, hygiene kits, mattresses, lamps, and also a mobile medical post,” Barrot says in an interview with French radio TF1.
The announcement comes amid renewed fighting between Israel and the Lebanese terror group Hezbollah, which began firing missiles at Israel last week in support of its patron Iran. Israel has since responded with waves of strikes on Hezbollah targets and called for large areas of the country to evacuate.
