EU chief urges increased humanitarian access in south Lebanon European Union Crisis Management Chief Hadja Lahbib urged for increased access for humanitarian aid currently struggling to get into areas in southern Lebanon which have been bombarded by Israeli strikes. “Humanitarian aid is ready, but too often it cannot reach those who need it most,” Lahib told a news conference on Saturday ahead of an expected EU aid delivery.
