Lebanon’s Overcrowded Prison Crisis Leaves Inmates With No Medical Care
Lebanon’s Economic Crisis Leaves Prisoners With little to No Medical Care
BBC News 7 APR 2022.
Prisons in Lebanon are overcrowded and their inmates have no access to medical care, unless they can pay for it privately.
Since late 2019, Lebanon has been suffering a severe economic crisis, including a massive currency depreciation as well as shortages of fuel, medicines and electricity.
This shortage is felt most acutely in the most vulnerable in society, including those incarcerated in the country’s prisons.
