Families of fire brigade victims file complaint against 27 figures, entities

The families of the firefighters who were killed in the Beirut port blast on Thursday filed a complaint against 27 officials and entities suspected of involvement in the tragedy.

“We are searching for the truth behind the port explosion and we will not wait for the result” of the investigations, a spokesman for the families, William Noon, said outside the Justice Palace.

“We will not remove any name from the complaint and we have submitted all information and evidence related to it to the state prosecutor but we have not sensed any serious responsiveness from his side,” Noon added.
