AMMAN — The Greek embassy will distribute school stationery to 200 children in Amman, among them Syrian and Iraqi refugees as well as Jordanian children in need, a statement by the embassy on Thursday said.

The donations will take place on Sunday and are offered in cooperation with the Middle East Council of Churches. The gifts form part of Greece’s efforts to support children in need, highlight the importance of education, and prevent Syrian and Iraqi youth from becoming a “lost generation”, according to the statement.
