Beirut Sunset, watercolour, Jamelie Hassan

Our hearts go out to all the people of Lebanon. Our condolences to all whose families and friends are suffering in the midst of the horrific devastation following the explosion that occurred at the Beirut port on August 4, 2020. The massive blast resulted in at least 158 deaths, 6,000 injuries, and made an estimated 300,000 people homeless.
 
The Government of Canada will match your donations to the Humanitarian Coalition between August 4 and 24 up to a maximum of $2 million. Read the release here.

Jamelie Hassan captured the beauty of Beirut, with this watercolour of the view of the sunset over the Mediterranean Sea.
