The Association of the Families of the Victims of the Beirut Port Explosion has reiterated its unequivocal opposition to the port’s rehabilitation operations.

During today’s sit-in in front of the expatriate statue, the organization said, “No to hiding evidence and obliterating the murder site, and emphasized its unwillingness” for someone to “carry out any reconstruction before the truth is revealed.”

The family questioned officials, asking: “Did you obtain any authorization from the case’s court investigator, Judge Tarek Bitar?”
