The United Nations Interim Force in Lebanon (UNIFIL), in cooperation with the Italian contingent, inaugurated a new clinic in the village of Ain Ebel, part of the Bint Jbeil District.
UNIFIL Western Sector Commander General David Colosi highlighted the importance of healthcare, stating that “healthcare today is a fundamental sector for stability and the return of normal life.”
“UNIFIL strives to achieve a better future for southern Lebanon, day by day,” he added.
Ayoub Khreish, the President of the Ain Ebel Municipal Council, thanked UNIFIL and the Italian contingent for their “constant presence.” Maronite Bishop Charbel Abdallah also expressed his gratitude to the peacekeeping force for “bringing a sense of hope during this challenging period.”
In parallel, Chinese peacekeepers cleared the rubble and reopened roads in Chamaa, thereby enhancing safety of movement and stability in southern Lebanon.
“Road repair, demining and clearing roadblocks are key elements of UNIFIL’s support for local communities, helping restore safe access and freedom of movement,” the force declared in a statement published Saturday on X.
