Investigation on port blast:
At the time of the assassination of Rafic Hariri, the four heads of the security services were arrested and jailed, but now no one is seeking to interrogate let alone arrest them, over their political & sectarian background. Are officials more worthy than 200 victims?

⋯ "Al-Nour" card has been issued exclusively for paid Hezbullah members, in the last decade or so.
As Hezbullah's salaries were very low compared to Lebanese salaries (500$ vs an average of 800-1200$), Hezbullah issued this card to give them discounts for food, clothes, medicine.
The card is still functioning, and it's different than the card "Al-Sajjad" issued to locals, or any other form of aid given by "Al-Imdad" organization.
Medicine offered is exclusively Syrian and Iranian-made, NOT LEBANESE or bought from Lebanon.

⋯ It is quite disgusting how some people are acting like wolves with Hezbullah's salaries and accommodations, when for the last 30 years, they used to laugh and say: "You are going to die for $500".
These people need a shred of decency. Hezbullah didn't steal one dime from the system. As we all know, the majority of Hezbullah is reserve forces, yet, despite being the backbone of the organization, even them can't benefit from what Al-Nour card can provide.
The Lebanese middle class is dying after it has become bigger.

Shortage of fuel:
For the first time in weeks, Lebanon is not facing long queues at petrol stations, as the distribution of gasoline and quantities available in the market for sale increased.
This is expected to last between a week to a couple of months maximum.
However, an increase in blackouts was noticed throughout Lebanon, as diesel is not available anymore, forcing private generators to shut down.

Hariri: I presented to President Aoun a government of 24 specialized ministers, according to the French initiative and the initiative of Berri.
This government, for me, is capable of stopping the collapse in the country, hoping for an answer from President Aoun tomorrow.
