30 truck Caritas Lebanon aid convoy reaches border towns, returns safely to Beirut

Caritas Lebanon announced that a humanitarian convoy of 30 trucks loaded with food and essential supplies successfully reached the border towns of Ain Ebel, Debl and Rmeish on Friday, despite security obstacles and difficult conditions.

The convoy, which departed on May 7 and arrived a day later, was accompanied by Maronite Patriarch representative Bishop Charbel Abdallah, Caritas Lebanon president Father Samir Ghawi and Vatican Embassy secretary Father Jakub Tomaszewski.

Caritas said the convoy faced shelling on the road during its return to Beirut on Saturday, forcing the team to temporarily head to the Irish UNIFIL base for safety. The convoy later returned safely to Beirut after the road reopened.

The organization said the aid convoys remain the only way to deliver essential supplies to residents of the border towns amid disrupted access routes and reaffirmed its support for people in southern Lebanon.
