Protesters in Lebanon called on the government to end the neglect that caused the 4 August explosion:

09 August 2020

A widespread outrage and demonstrations took place in Lebanon after the Beirut Port blast

Daily protests have continued for more than a week on Beirut's debris-strewn streets, with citizens calling for removal of the entire political class and a restructuring of the country's political system.  Protesters who had turned out to demand accountability for one of the biggest explosion in Lebanon were met by teargas and rubber bullets. Police also shot live ammunition in the air, in an attempt to disperse the furious crowds.

Citizen demanded to sweep away the corruption and cronyism that have plagued governmental institutions for decades while seeking fair and impartial investigation.
