The displacements resulting from Israel’s attacks on Southern Lebanon have intensified barriers to opportunities and humanitarian resources for all women, exacerbating the challenges they face since the escalation of the conflict along the Israel-Lebanon border. Female refugees and internally displaced persons (IDPs), domestic migrant workers, and LGBTIQ+ individuals are among the groups most severely impacted, facing significant obstacles in accessing sexual and reproductive health services as well as other critical healthcare services.
