Families of victims of the Beirut port explosion address interior minister: we demand our legal right and reject continued marginalisation

Beirut, Lebanon ·

The group, made up of relatives of those killed, injured and affected by the explosion, addressed a statement to Interior and Municipalities Minister Ahmad Hajjar. It demands its legal rights and questions why some victims' groups can set up associations while its own request remains unanswered.

A massive explosion at Beirut's port on 4 August 2020 killed more than 200 people and devastated surrounding neighbourhoods, and the judicial investigation into it has been slow and contested.
