It is well known that Syrian refugees in Lebanon, as in other neighbouring countries, consist of families that include women and children, who seek to escape with their lives from the killing machine in their towns and villages. In Lebanon in particular, the assistance provided to them is nearly limited to civil society groups, after the state has by virtue of the domestic balance of power given up on doing its humanitarian duty in this respect.

Lebanon does not only host refugees from Syria, but from other Arab countries too.

Pray for these people, regardless of their religion or political involvement.
