The Crisis Desk of the Democratic Autonomous Administration of North and East Syria said in a statement on Sunday that 17,558 people entered the region from Lebanon due to the war between Israel and Hezbollah.  

According to the statement, 6,114 of these people are men, 5,587 are women, 5,800 are children and 46 of them are Lebanese. In addition, 11 bodies were transported to the region.

While those coming from Lebanon are hosted by their relatives to a significant extent, those who do not have relatives are hosted in the resettlement centre.

According to reports, the Lebanese representative of the Autonomous Administration has set up monitoring delegations for those who want to return to Northern and Eastern Syria due to the war.

The representative office co-operates in particular with the Newroz Cultural Association in Beirut to facilitate the return and meet the needs of those who want to return.

In parallel, the Autonomous Administration of North and East Syria has set up a crisis desk to welcome the returnees from Lebanon and provide for their needs.

The humanitarian organisation Heyva Sor a Kurd (Kurdish Red Crescent) has set up tents in several cities for the people coming from Lebanon.
