Racism in Lebanon. African migrants are not welcome in some air raid shelters

  • African migrants from Lebanon are not welcome in some air raid shelters.
  • Their administrators give priority to local residents during Israeli airstrikes.
  • Many Africans also complain about the difficult working conditions in Lebanon and want to return to Africa.

African migrants in Lebanon face bombings and discrimination. During the frequent air attacks, they seek shelter in the basements designed to protect the population.

However, in many cases, Africans are prevented from entering shelters because locals have priority, according to Al Jazeera.

In addition, thousands of Africans complain about the difficult working conditions in Lebanon. Under Lebanese law, a foreign worker is tied to a local sponsor, which facilitates abuse.
