Paris Hosts Conference to Aid Lebanon

Published: 2024-10-24

In a bid to stabilize Lebanon amidst ongoing conflict, France hosted an international conference on October 24, 2024, focusing on humanitarian aid and political support.

The conference aimed to address the needs of over a million displaced Lebanese, primarily from the Shiite community, due to the conflict between Israel and Hezbollah.

With Lebanon facing severe political and financial crises, the involvement of Gulf monarchies is seen as crucial for its recovery.

The conference also emphasized strengthening the Lebanese army to prevent a potential civil war.

Despite the challenges, France remains committed to supporting Lebanon, a nation historically linked to it, in its quest for peace and stability.
