Lebanon Marks Fourth Anniversary of Beirut Port Blast
News summary

As Lebanon marks the fourth anniversary of the devastating Beirut port explosion, which killed over 220 people and injured thousands, families demand accountability amid a stalled investigation plagued by political interference. The massive blast, caused by improperly stored ammonium nitrate, has left victims' families frustrated as no officials have been held responsible despite numerous calls for a transparent probe. UN Special Coordinator for Lebanon, Jeanine Hennis-Plasschaert, echoed these sentiments, urging for justice and accountability. The political climate remains tense, with rising fears of conflict between Israel and Hezbollah, further complicating the situation. Families continue to organize protests, highlighting the ongoing grief and outrage over the lack of accountability, while the investigation faces continual legal hurdles and obstruction from governmental authorities. Despite multiple charges against officials, the investigation led by Judge Tarek Bitar has seen little progress, leaving many feeling abandoned by their government.
