"As humanitarians, we spend our lives responding to emergencies and communicating about disasters. But we are just normal people. We are not immune to the trauma, the panic, or the losses that people around us are facing. And yet, we keep going. Because there is no other choice." On 8 April 2026, Black Wednesday, over 150 airstrikes struck Lebanon in ten minutes. 357 people were killed. 1,223 injured. The events of that day profoundly affected the lives of people working to help others.
