All information is valid for 3 – 16 June 2026 Key Points Following US-facilitated negotiations in Washington, Lebanon and Israel announced on 3 June an agreement on a conditional ceasefire aimed at ending hostilities linked to the broader regional conflict. The agreement is contingent on a complete cessation of fire by Hezbollah and the withdrawal of its operatives from areas south of the Litani River. The humanitarian situation in Lebanon remains fragile and unpredictable, with armed clashes continuing despite the ceasefire, alongside periodic escalations, including airstrikes, evacuation warnings, and new displacement, particularly in the south of the country. UNRWA launched its emergency response in Lebanon on 4 March 2026. Since then, the Agency has been operating two collective emergency shelters [1]: Siblin Training Centre in Saida Area and Battir School in Nahr El Bared Camp in northern Lebanon. By 16 June, a total of 1, 911 displaced people from 605 families were registered in the two UNRWA emergency shelters. Between 3 and 16 June, no security incidents affecting on-duty UNRWA personnel or facilities were reported.
