Australia has delivered a C-130J Hercules full of urgently needed humanitarian supplies to Beirut to help the people of Lebanon recover from the devastating impacts of the explosion disaster. Our hearts go out to all those impacted.
These supplies include mobile warehouses to help replace storage facilities destroyed in the blast, and shelter kits and tools to help address urgent needs for the 300,000 people left homeless.
This assistance is on top of the $5 million we have committed to support global relief efforts, including the World Food Programme, the Red Cross Movement, and UNICEF.
