Lebanon: Healing Those Deeply Affected Recently, with thousands of Syrians—many of whom have physical wounds—fleeing the violence in their country and seeking refuge in Lebanon, we dispatched medical teams to evaluate their health status.

We have been working in Lebanon for three years, and were therefore in a position to closely monitor the health situation for Syrians arriving in the country.
