SILVER SPRING, MD (August 6, 2020) \u2013 Adventist Development and Relief Agency (ADRA) response teams in Lebanon are providing essential emergency supplies to recovery workers and survivors of the massive explosion in Beirut\u2019s port.  The huge blast that struck the Lebanese capital city on August 4, killed at least 135 people, wounded more than 5,000 people, and left more than 300,000 people homeless.

\u201cResponders say they have never seen anything like this before. The images look like a war zone.  The first dispatched ambulance teams were killed by the explosion. We are delivering water and essential equipment to firefighters and civil defense workers,\u201d says Gunther Wallauer, ADRA regional director for the Middle East and North Africa.  \u201cWe are providing bedding supplies, so they have a place to rest; they need cots, tents, generators for lights since electricity is out in most of the city. We know there\u2019s devastation in several neighborhoods close to the epicenter.  Our teams on the ground are quickly assessing the situation to provide immediate aid to children and families.\u201d

Los equipos de ADRA recorrer\u00e1n al menos cinco barrios, incluidas las escuelas que rodean la zona de la explosi\u00f3n, para empezar a desplegar la ayuda humanitaria, que incluye agua y alimentos, a las v\u00edctimas. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Las autoridades creen que la explosi\u00f3n mortal podr\u00eda haber sido causada por toneladas de material altamente explosivo almacenado en un dep\u00f3sito del puerto principal. La cat\u00e1strofe sobrecoge al pa\u00eds, que ya se enfrenta a una crisis econ\u00f3mica y a la pandemia del coronavirus.

\u201cOur prayers are with the Lebanese nation, especially the children and families affected by this catastrophe and all who lost loved ones and are injured.  We have been on the ground since the coronavirus outbreak helping the Lebanese community cope with the health and economic challenges of the pandemic and are ready to provide additional support during this added crisis,\u201d says ADRA\u2019s President Michael Kruger.  \u201cWe are committed to increasing our emergency response activities to provide life-saving essentials to those in need of assistance.\u201d
