UAE launches campaign to aid Syrian refugees

Beirut / WAM

The Humanitarian and Development Affairs Attache at the UAE Embassy in Beirut launched the ‘UAE Response Campaign for Displaced Syrians – Winter 2018’. The campaign is in line with the Year of Zayed 2018, as declared by President His Highness Sheikh Khalifa bin Zayed Al Nahyan.
The Embassy’s media office said that the campaign would cover all provinces within Lebanon, especially border regions, where the most disadvantaged and marginalised are situated.
The UAE Embassy will be running the campaign in cooperation with the Lebanese Ministry of the Displaced, and other agencies including the Lebanese Red Cross, High Relief Council, and Dar Al Fatwa.
The campaign has begun its first phase in Arsal and Beirut and will continue across villages and towns of the North Governorate, as well as Bekaa, Tripoli, Sidon, and El Kharroub, with the aim to reach as many vulnerable persons as possible.
