Country: Iran (Islamic Republic of) Source: World Food Programme Please refer to the attached file. IN NUMBERS 611,200 displaced people assisted in Lebanon with food and cash to date. 112,576 displaced people received date bars at Syria crossings. 33,500 refugees in settlement supported with food and cash assistance in Iran. KEY HIGHLIGHTS Despite the ceasefire, nearly two months into the escalation in the Middle East, sustained supply chain disruptions, port congestion, and transport delays continue to drive up delivery costs and timelines for food, energy, fertilizers, and other essential commodities, along with straining humanitarian operations, disproportionately affecting the world’s poorest and most vulnerable populations, both within the region and beyond. In Iran, WFP assistance continues uninterrupted, reaching 33,424 refugees across 20 settlements, with plans to expand to additional refugees referred by the authorities to support evolving needs. In Lebanon, despite deteriorating security conditions, the Logistics Cluster, with the support of WFP, has facilitated 12 convoys so far, assisting 59,900 affected people in hard-to-reach areas. Ensuring safe, reliable humanitarian access, including effective deconfliction, is urgent to respond effectively to growing humanitarian needs. In Syria, WFP continues its emergency response, distributing date bars to over 112,000 people transiting through Jousieh and Jdeidet Yabous border points amid continued displacement and movement pressures.
