Lebanon’s First Lady visits Red Cross blood center on Beirut Port explosion anniversary

On the fifth anniversary of the Beirut Port explosion, Lebanon’s First Lady Neemat Aoun visited the Lebanese Red Cross blood center in Gemmayze, which was severely damaged in the 2020 blast.

She was received by Red Cross President and senior officials from the blood transfusion sector. The team briefed her on the extent of the damage and the rapid reconstruction efforts that allowed the center to resume operations in record time.
