Explanation

A new government has been announced in Lebanon over a year after the previous administration quit following the devastating Beirut port explosion. Najib Mikati – Lebanon’s richest man – becomes Prime Minister, a position he has held twice before. Lebanon had been without a proper functioning government since then-Prime Minister Hassan Diab resigned days after a massive blast on August 4, 2020 destroyed Beirut port and the surrounding area. The explosion, caused by improperly stored ammonium nitrate, killed 203 people, injured at least 6,000 others and left billions of dollars of damage.
