TRIPOLI,
Lebanon: A delegation from a Kuwaiti NGO distributed food aid Wednesday to
around 900 Syrian refugee families as part of a project to help people ahead of
the Ramadan holiday.
The
Mercy International delegation launched the project to help refugees who will
fast during the holy month. Wednesday’s assistance reached families who are
living between the Akkar villages of Borqayel and Takrit, as well as in several
neighborhoods of Tripoli. In addition to providing refugees with iftar meals,
the initiative will assist them in paying rent and medical expenses.
The refugees thanked the
delegation for the assistance, saying they wanted to spend Ramadan in their
homes, after their country’s liberation.
