Caretaker Prime Minister Najib Mikati headed a meeting at the Grand Serail today to discuss the implementation of a national emergency plan in response to potential security developments, according to a press release by Mikati's office.
The goal of the meeting was to ensure alignment between the humanitarian emergency plan led by the UN Humanitarian Coordinator and the response plan of the Lebanese government.
Key points of the meeting included securing essential humanitarian necessities for displaced individuals, especially in the face of the country's challenging economic conditions, and the ability to mobilize the required material and human resources.
The meeting addressed steps to increase and manage Lebanon's stock of wheat, basic supplies, fuel and medical materials as a crucial matter in the event of any aggression or disruption in shipping and imports.
