Beirut today, is a disaster capital city that needs all our solidarity after the tragic explosion that took place in Beirut Port on the evening of August 4th, 2020 resulted in hundreds of casualties, more than five thousand wounded, and hundreds of thousands of people who became homeless. About a quarter of the houses in Beirut are now damaged and several hospitals have become unfit for medical service, while the country experiences a rapid growth of the spread of COVID-19.
Taawon calls upon all its members, friends, partners, governments and donor organizations to donate “In Solidarity with Beirut” campaign in order to restore and rehabilitate the Karantina Governmental Hospital, one of the hospitals and health facilities that were damaged in the explosion.
