Jreij Deems Political and Security Officials as the Ammonium Guards

Vice President of the Kataeb Party Georges Jreij on Wednesday blamed the current ruling authority for the Beirut explosion that has jolted the city’s main port one year ago, saying that all political and security officials were the ammonium guards.

“Officials feared only about the danger of the ammonium theft. They did not care about the danger of its presence amid a residential and a commercial area,” Jreij wrote on twitter.

“August 4 was not a human error but rather a human mistake,” he said.
