Lebanese Civil Defense teams and army helicopters continue to monitor the Beirut port fire, which broke out a month after the terrible explosion, in which thousands of Lebanese were killed and injured..
On the “seventh day” he learned that the fire broke out due to high temperatures, and that it is not nearly criminal – so far – for some reason.
Basem Al-Qaisi, Beirut Port General Manager, said the fire broke out on the free market in the building of one of the companies that import frying oil, and spread to the rubber tires, causing the thick black smoke and rising flames.
Eyewitnesses told “El Séptimo Día” from the vicinity of the fire that the fire broke out in an oil and car tire warehouse, amid a state of panic among residents over the failure of efforts by the Lebanese authorities to control the expansion of the fire..
Eyewitnesses added that it is feared that the fire could result in other bombardments in the port, after the bombing that occurred on August 4, which left 191 dead and almost 8,000 injured, in addition to the displacement of more than 300,000 people and the destruction of homes and public and private facilities.
