Iran’s Red Crescent Society announced a decision to establish a field hospital on Lebanon’s border with Syria amid the ongoing escalation in Lebanon.

Babak Mahmoudi, an official with the organization, made the announcement following the Israeli military’s bombing of a hospital in Lebanon a week ago.
 
Mahmoudi said the new hospital will be built some 40km from the facility targeted by Israel.
 
Iran’s Red Crescent Society has delivered its fourth aid consignment containing three tones of medical supplies to Lebanon.
 
The new aid consignment containing emergency medicine, including for children has arrived in the Lebanese capital Beirut on Sunday.
 
Mahmoudi also said at least 11 Iranian Red Crescent aid workers would be deployed to Lebanon in the coming days.
 
Iran’s parliament speaker and former air force commander, Mohammad Bagher Ghalibaf, who piloted a plane to Beirut on Saturday and visited the site of the latest Israeli air attack on the city, said Tehran is prepared to send more supplies if the Lebanese government can secure an air corridor over the capital.
