104 Fires In 24 Hours, Lebanon Is Burning

Heartbreaking.

Massive wildfires have erupted in Lebanon, swallowing everything in their way.

Forests, homes, schools, universities, roads, and more have been completely engulfed in the flames, leaving little behind.



People are being evacuated from their homes, not knowing whether they’ll find a way back.

The fires, which originally started in Mechref, have thus far spread across neighboring areas like Debbieh, Na’ameh, Damour, Aramoun, and more. Meanwhile, more fires broke out in Akkar overnight and in the early hours of the morning.



Civil defense teams alone are incapable of putting out the fires, thus Lebanon has resorted to Cypriot help.

This is a nightmare. Pray for Lebanon.
