Lebanon marked the third anniversary of the catastrophic port blast in Beirut, which killed at least 218 people and caused extensive damage. However, nobody has been held accountable due to political and legal pressures suspending the investigation. The blast occurred amidst an economic collapse, leading to renewed calls for an international investigation. Activist groups representing families of the victims organized protests against the Lebanese state’s politicization of their cause and interference in the judiciary. The anniversary highlighted the lack of progress in achieving justice and accountability for the tragedy.
