He added: “To date, about 2,400 people have been martyred, more than 10,000 others have been injured, and about one million people have been displaced from our people due to the devastating war waged by Israel, and the losses are still rising.”
He stressed that: “In these difficult circumstances, it is necessary to move forward in implementing the Lebanese response plan to enhance public services and ensure adequate support for Lebanese institutions, in addition to providing
immediate humanitarian assistance.”
