Despite all the international attention given to the issue of displaced Syrians in Lebanon, Lebanese Minister of Social Affairs Rashid Derbas confirmed that a humanitarian disaster is in the offing, and that such a disaster is likely to affect all of Lebanon.
Derbas, in charge of the issue of the displaced, told Al-Monitor that the visits carried out by international officials to Beirut have been almost exclusively linked to the issue of the displaced Syrians.
