Italy donates 1.2 million euros for Nahr el Bared

Italy gave the UNDP 1.2 million euros ($1.5 million) for Nahr el Bared, Palestinian camp, and the surrounding areas.

“[The Nahr al-Bared] region went through the most dramatic events, and its reconstruction needs to be based on an integrated approach which takes into account … the needs and expectations of both the Palestinian refugees and those of the inhabitants of neighboring Lebanese municipalities,” the Italian Ambassador Gabriele Checchia said.
