Belgian Red Cross-Flanders offers additional emergency relief to Lebanese Red Cross

Thanks to citizen contributions, Belgian Red Cross-Flanders has already donated 200,000 euros to the International Red Cross (ICRC) to provide assistance to victims and displaced persons in the conflict zone. In addition to financial support, Belgian Red Cross-Flanders is now providing logistical support to the Lebanese Red Cross.

Delivery of essential relief supplies

A flight organized by the Federal Government allowed essential relief supplies to be flown to the conflict zone in Lebanon specifically for the Lebanese Red Cross. Among the goods were 100,000 mouth masks, 40,000 gloves, 300 body bags and a special blood storage refrigerator. This refrigerator is important for the 13 blood transfusion centers run by the Lebanese Red Cross. In response to the recent escalation, the Lebanese Red Cross has expanded its blood services and is calling on the population to donate blood.
