URGENT RESPONSE
Escalating Displacement in Saida, Lebanon
March 2026
Crisis OverviewTens of thousands of Lebanese civilians are fleeing their homes following intensified airstrikes across Beirut’s southern suburbs and South Lebanon. Evacuation orders have been issued for more than 50 villages, triggering mass displacement toward safer areas in the north.
As of March 2, 2026, the Lebanese Ministry of Public Health has confirmed 31 fatalities and 149 injuries resulting from the strikes.
Saida has once again become a primary refuge city. Highways from Dahieh and Tyre have been gridlocked as families escaped overnight bombardment. Schools in Saida have opened as emergency shelters, receiving hundreds of displaced families within hours.
The first days of displacement are critical to prevent overcrowding, disease outbreaks, and protection risks particularly as the crisis unfolds during the holy month of Ramadan.Families are arriving with little more than the clothes they are wearing.
