    [02] Greek warship evacuates more civilians from Beirut

    More humanitarian aid to Lebanon as well as another evacuation of civilians from the war-ravaged region to Cyprus, organised by the Hellenic Navy, will be completed in the following hours.

    According to the Greece's national defense general staff, 68 tons of humanitarian aid and four UN vehicles were being unloaded early Thursday afternoon from the Hellenic Navy landing vessel "Chios" at the port of Beirut.

    Some 400 civilians, including 40 Greek nationals, will be subsequently transported by vessel to Cyprus.
