Israel has killed more than 100 #EMS and #Healthcare workers and injured 233 since the onset of the 2026 war on Lebanon, according to @mophleb. These are NOT just numbers. They are paramedics, nurses, doctors, and frontline responders. Serious Violations. #Peace #Justice #Health

21,853 #casualties during the Israeli 2024 war on Lebanon. Temporal analysis shows escalation over time, highest concentration (Sept - Oct 2024). #Blast injuries - leading cause. #Southern Lebanon & Nabatiyeh hardest hit. #Delayed access to care - Fatal. https://t.co/2y09b8WD8K

🏆 Congrats to @DrSamarHajj for receiving the 2025 #AAAM LMIC Road Safety Award! Her research through #MENAPAIR is transforming road safety & injury prevention across #Lebanon & the MENA region. @FHS_AUB

[Samar Al-Hajj @DrSamarHajj]

I had the opportunity to participate in the #WHO regional Meeting on #Drowning Prevention and share #Lebanon progress in addressing #drowning as a largely preventable yet neglected public health threat. This meeting reinforced the need for coordinated actions & stronger policies.

MP Georges Okais praised #MENAPAIR’s research and interventional efforts to reduce the burden of injuries on the road and pledged to translate the ideas and recommendations shared by stakeholders today into enforced rules and laws. @DrSamarHajj

[MENA PAIR | Injury Research Training Program @menapair]

Happening now! #MENAPAIR Workshop on Strengthening the Legal Framework of Car Seat Use in Lebanon 🇱🇧 @DrSamarHajj welcomes key stakeholders and shares insights on the burden of #RTI in #Lebanon and the urgent need for stronger child safety measures. #ChildInjuryPrevention

@MartineNajem The workshop ended with a session on drafting initial concept note sections, guided by the facilitators

[CRI_AUBMC @CRI_AUBMC]

@MartineNajem and here is a wonderful group picture.
Thank You all!

[CRI_AUBMC @CRI_AUBMC]

Participants explored the foundations of #ImplementationResearch with Dr. @MartineNajem & Dr. @T_Kabakian, engaged in hands-on exercises to identify implementation gaps, crafted meaningful research questions, and applied RE-AIM & CFIR frameworks to strengthen their approaches.

[CRI_AUBMC @CRI_AUBMC]

@MartineNajem @T_Kabakian In the afternoon, teams began drafting their concept notes with guided support—transforming ideas into actionable research plans. 💡📝
Proud to see future public health leaders take their first steps toward real-world impact!

[MENA PAIR | Injury Research Training Program @menapair]

@DrSamarHajj addressed the devastating toll of #war injuries in #Lebanon, with the disproportionate impact on Women, children and elderly and the deliberate targeting of healthcare workers and facilities. These systematic attacks represents a clear violation of #IHL @FHS_AUB

[MENA PAIR | Injury Research Training Program @menapair]

In her interview on #TheResearcher, @DrSamarHajj spotlighted a silent epidemic in Lebanon: Road Traffic Injuries #RTI, especially among young males often linked to speed and risk-taking behavior, calling for targeted awareness to prevent these loses. @FHS_AUB @LBCILebanon

[MENA PAIR | Injury Research Training Program @menapair]

@DrSamarHajj highlights research showing Lebanon’s high rates of #drowning #injuries, especially among males and children. As summer approaches, the research calls for urgent multisectoral action, from public awareness and training to safe water infrastructure. @FHS_AUB

[MENA PAIR | Injury Research Training Program @menapair]

Join us tomorrow at 9:30 PM on #TheResearcher @LBCILebanon as @DrSamarHajj and our trainees will explore the #injury burden in Lebanon and the region— and how evidence-based research led by #MENAPAIR is driving change @FHS_AUB @AUB_Lebanon
