Head of the media departement at the Kataeb party Patrick Richa on Friday blamed Hezbollah for the Beirut port explosion, saying that Hezbollah is the main responsible behind the blast until proven otherwise.

“You are accused of your criminal history, of holding the Lebanese hostages, of your involvement in the Syrian war, of your control over the legal and illegal border crossings, and of your protection to the wanted ones in the questioning concerning the immunities,” Richa tweeted.

Richa’s statement came in a response to Hezbollah MP Hussein AL Haj Hassan who was asked " On what the Kataeb party is based for accusing hezbollah for the beirut port explosion ?"
