EU announces extra 30 million euros of humanitarian aid to Lebanon
2024-10-04
[IsraelTimes] The European Union announces that it is giving an extra 30 million euros ($33 million) of humanitarian aid to Lebanon as fighting rages between Israel and Hezbollah.

“Today, we are stepping up our humanitarian aid to the people of Lebanon,” says European Commission president Ursula von der Leyen.

“Our new funding will ensure civilians receive much-needed assistance during this very difficult time.

“I am extremely concerned by the constant escalation of tensions in the Middle East. All parties must do their utmost to protect the lives of innocent civilians.”

The latest EU aid package comes on top of 10 million euros announced over the weekend, taking the bloc’s humanitarian assistance for Lebanon to over 100 million euros this year.
