Communities in Tyre, Lebanon are at breaking point as they face ongoing Israeli airstrikes and evacuation orders for the entire city; home to over 165,000 people. Many have already been displaced multiple times and exhausted every resource they have to survive. Those who leave will be forced into areas that are over-crowded, under-resourced, and stretched to the brink. The IRC is scaling up its operations in Tyre and across southern Lebanon to reach people with critical support. This includes cash assistance, psychosocial support, and essential hygiene items that many families can no longer afford or find. Josephine Haddad, Policy, Advocacy and Communications Coordinator in Lebanon, reports from the scene.
