The Collapse of Paediatric and Maternal Healthcare

Why Lebanon’s Health Crisis is a Children’s Crisis

Lebanon’s healthcare system is facing a catastrophic collapse that threatens the lives of its youngest citizens. Since the escalation on March 2, 2026, there have been 92 verified attacks on healthcare facilities, leading to the forced closure of five major hospitals. This isn’t just a statistic; it represents thousands of families who no longer have access to life-saving paediatric or maternal care.

In Beirut, the largest public hospital has seen its emergency admissions triple, stretching medical staff and dwindling supplies to their absolute limit. For a family with a sick child or a mother in labour, the search for medical aid has become a desperate race against time.

Shelters are at capacity. Hospitals are closing.

The Lebanon crisis has seen 92 attacks on healthcare facilities in just one month. As hospitals close, the burden falls on the most vulnerable

The systematic destruction of health infrastructure is one of the most devastating aspects of the Lebanon crisis. When clinics are hit and ambulances are struck, the most vulnerable newborns, injured children, and those with chronic illnesses suffer first.

Our charity is focused on providing emergency medical supplies and supporting the courageous healthcare workers who remain on the frontlines despite the risks.

Through your generosity, we can provide the specialised humanitarian assistance required to keep mobile clinics running and ensure that no child dies from a preventable injury or lack of medicine during this conflict.
