Shababik for Lebanon Tote

Our first Shababik tote bag is a tribute to Lebanon and was created in collaboration with our dear friend Anna Rother.

As this lady nostalgically beholds a view well familiar to all friends of Lebanon, the country is going through tremendously difficult times. From October 2023 until November 2024, Lebanon was under heavy and daily Israeli bombardment, including the forbidden use of white phosphorus bombs which cause everything in proximity (including human flesh) to catch fire and so-called "bunker buster" bombs which detonate after penetrating up to 30 m into the ground and vaporise everything within that radius. 

After an unprecedented escalation that began in September 2024 and lasted for three long months, many parts of Beirut and South Lebanon lie in ruins, thousands of Lebanese citizens are martyred or mutilated, countless olive groves and agricultural land are scorched and tens of thousands have lost their homes. 

Even after an official ceasefire agreement was been signed in November, South Lebanon continues to suffer from daily Israeli bombardment, demolitions and the occupation of several villages in the South.

The Lebanese Red Cross, which has worked tirelessly all through the horrors of the war and has suffered important losses among staff and volunteers, continues to need our support.

To help the Red Cross overcome recent tragedies and get back on its feet, Shababik continues to 5 € from every purchased bag to the Lebanese Red Cross.

Thank you for you support.
