Beirut explosion scrutiny

During the 2020 Beirut explosion, Ghazi Zaiter was Minister of Public Works and Transportation at the time and has been under scrutiny since. He had been responsible for dealing with the ship carrying 2,750 tons of ammonium nitrate that docked on Beirut's Port in 2013.[5] In addition, breakthroughs from Al Jadeed's interview with the ship's captain, Boris Prokoshev, have brought to light that the crew's lawyer who helped them abandon the ship in Beirut had been Mohammed Zaiter, Ghazi Zaiter's son.[6] With the explosion of the ship's content in 2020, many have viewed Zaiter's inaction towards the ship as incriminating.[7]
