On 7 October 2023, Hamas killed or abducted people for one reason.

Today we mourn them.

The EU is stepping up its humanitarian aid to Lebanon, to over €100 million this year.
A new €30 million package will ensure civilians get much needed assistance.
Once again, we call for a ceasefire across the border with Lebanon and in Gaza, and the release of all hostages.
