The US embassy in Lebanon issued the following statement: "Today marks five years since the tragic Beirut port explosion that claimed over 200 lives and displaced thousands.
We stand with the people of Lebanon in their call for accountability.
Lebanon deserves an independent and impartial judicial system that delivers justice for the victims, not protections for the elites.
The United States remains committed to a sovereign, stable, and prosperous Lebanon shaped by its people—not outside forces."
