Israel in advanced discussions to send medical equipment to Lebanon — report

Israel is in advanced discussions to transfer medical equipment to Lebanon after yesterday’s deadly blast at the Beirut port, the Kan public broadcaster reports.

Contacts are being moderated by the UN, according to Kan, which quotes an unnamed UNIFIL source saying Lebanon’s government received Israel’s offer of aid, but has yet to officially respond.

The broadcaster says Israel would send “specific equipment” to Lebanon, but doesn’t specify what this equipment is.

The two countries have no diplomatic relations and Israel classifies its northern neighbor as an enemy state.
