CRS Chief Operating Officer Sean CallahanÊgreets children living in extremely basic conditions at an informal camp housing Syrian refugees near Bar Elias in Lebanon's Bekaa valley on Thursday 18 2012. The families here live in squalid conditions in flimsy tents that will offer little shelter during the approaching winter. CLMC is currently providing assistance to some 6,045 Syrian families (6 percent of which are Christian, 94 percent of which are Muslim) who have fled the current violence in their home country, and over 6,000 families have registered for assistance from CLMC. In the first half of October, CLMC registered almost 1,000 new refugee families throughout Lebanon.
