France’s Macron to co-host Lebanon donor conference on Sunday

French President Emmanuel Macron will host a donor conference for Lebanon via video-link on Sunday, his office said, as countries mobilise to help rebuild Beirut after this week’s massive blast.

The conference, which will be co-chaired by the United Nations, will seek pledges from participants including U.S. President Donald Trump.

It is expected to decide how to distribute the aid so it benefits the people directly.
