Lebanon s Syrian refugees: The forgotten victims of the Beirut blast, and collateral damage in a national crisis
Format
Sawssan Abou-Zahr
A few hours after the devastating blast on August 4th, 2020, my Syrian friend called to check in on me.
He offered to host me at his house in a mountain village outside Beirut. It meant a lot to me, especially given his own vulnerable security status in Lebanon.
Several Lebanese recounted that Syrian workers drove them to hospitals. A Syrian activist told me he rushed his bleeding neighbours to get medical assistance before helping his own cousin. He said a hospital refused to admit him because of his nationality. When he noticed my anger and shame, he tried to play down the situation: My cousin had superficial cuts on his hands. We found another hospital where he was treated without discrimination .
