The emergency, hospital, council, water and power numbers a household in Tyre actually needs — with tappable numbers.
The numbers a household in Tyre actually needs, in one place. The emergency short codes work from any phone, anywhere in Lebanon — save them before you need them.
Emergencies: 112, 125 or 140
For police call 112, for fire or rescue call the Civil Defense on 125, and for an ambulance call the Lebanese Red Cross on 140 or the Civil Defense on 125. All are free national numbers.
Found something that might be unexploded? Do not touch it
After the war, unexploded shells and cluster munitions remain a danger across the south — in fields, in rubble and along roads. If you see a suspicious item, do not touch, move or kick it, keep children well back, move away the way you came, and call the Civil Defense on 125 or the Lebanese Army on 1701 to report it. Never try to move or defuse it yourself — clearing it is the job of trained teams.
Living in Rashidieh, Burj el-Shemali or El Buss?
The Palestinian camps around Tyre are served by UNRWA, separately from the Lebanese hospitals and offices above. For health care, schooling and help, the point of contact is the UNRWA health centre and area office inside your own camp rather than a public phone line.
State electricity — accounts and billing online; there is no public fault hotline
