Just last Sunday, schools across Lebanon were preparing to open their doors to children for a new week of learning. Instead, they opened their doors to families seeking safety. @WFP is reaching over 200,000 conflict-affected people with emergency food and cash assistance — a response made possible through strong partnerships with local and government partners and communities on the ground. But needs are already outpacing resources. Our acting Country Director Anne Valand @ValandAnne speaks more below.
