A coalition of
philanthropic organizations aiding Syrian refugees in Lebanon, organized a
solidarity day on Thursday in support of the refugees, the National News Agency
reported.
The event was attended by a
number of mayors from northern Lebanese villages, in addition to Syrian
refugees.
The general secretary of
the coalition, Zayed Mohammad Zachariah, said that the number of refugees
“exceeds 3000 families.”
“It is our humanitarian duty
today to offer aid to [the Syrian refugees] and we should not abandon them,” he
added.
Thousands of Syrians have
fled violence in their country to Lebanon.
