[199][200][201][202][203][204], Prime Minister Hassan Diab announced that 5 August, the day after the explosions, would be a national day of mourning. The economy of Lebanon was in a state of crisis before the explosions, with the government having defaulted on debt, the pound plunging, and a poverty rate that had risen past 50%. The ship, built in 1986, flying the flag of Moldova, was carrying the cargo to an explosives manufacturing firm in Mozambique. [15] The shipment had been ordered by an African explosives manufacturing company for mining in Mozambique. The ship was leased by Igor Grechushkin, a Russian businessman living in Cyprus, to transport a dangerous cargo: 2,750 tons of ammonium nitrate, a chemical compound used to make fertilizers and explosives. He said Russian shipowner Igor Grechushkin abandoned them without paying their wages or the debt he owed to the port. [143] The atelier for the fashion house Sandra Mansour was heavily damaged by the explosion. [159][161], The Bangladesh Navy corvette BNS Bijoy, which participated in the United Nations Interim Force in Lebanon, was also damaged. The international side of the affair, on the other hand, quickly became lost in a maze of corporate and financial intrigue. Igor Grechushkin, the Russian man variously described as the owner or the operator of the Moldovan-flagged MV Rhosus, is said to have abandoned the vessel in Lebanon after declaring bankruptcy. [193], Health Minister Hamad Hasan requested that international aid be sent to Lebanon;[6] a number of countries sent in food, medical supplies, field hospitals, medical workers, and rescue teams. After the ship was held by Beirut authorities in late 2013, Captain Boris Prokoshev and three other crew members were forced to remain on board because of immigration restrictions. The vessel RHOSUS (IMO: 8630344 ) is a General Cargo Ship built in 1986 (34 years old) and currently sailing under the flag of Unknown.

[121], All ten members of Platoon 5 died at the scene of the blast. [164][165][166] Two large livestock carriers, Abou Karim I and Abou Karim III, laid up at the end of Berth 09, very close to Warehouse 12, were heavily damaged.

The MV Rhosus, the abandoned ship connected to the Beirut blast, never made it into the ILO database. [146] All the stained glass windows of the National Evangelical Church were blown out. Vessel loaded with ammonium nitrate was destined for another country, the reason she called Beirut is unclear, maybe for supplies or due to some mechanical trouble. [188][needs update], The Lebanese Red Cross said every available ambulance from North Lebanon, Bekaa, and South Lebanon was being dispatched to Beirut to help patients. (August 23, 2020 / JNS) The massive explosion in Beirut on Aug. 4 has been traced back to a cargo ship, the Rhosus, that arrived in the city’s port in 2013 carrying 2,750 tons of ammonium nitrate.The owner of the Rhosus has now been linked to the Lebanese bank used by Hezbollah, according to an investigation by Der Spiegel and the Organized Crime and Corruption Reporting Project.

Lebanese authorities have not named the MV Rhosus as the source of the substance that ultimately exploded in Beirut on Tuesday, but Prime Minister Hassan Diab … [10][24], By order of the judge, the cargo was brought ashore in 2014 and placed in Warehouse 12 at the port,[30] where it remained for the next six years. [72][73] A former port worker said that "[t]here were 30 to 40 nylon bags of fireworks inside warehouse 12" that he had personally seen.

So now we have a request. [117][118][162], The edible-oil tanker ship Amadeo II was nearest to the explosion, which deposited the mangled remains of the ship on a nearby quay. Photos have emerged of the abandoned ship that transported the volatile cargo that exploded in the port of Beirut, Lebanon. [170][171], Beirut–Rafic Hariri International Airport, the city's main airport, about 10 km (6 mi) from the site of the blast, sustained moderate damage to the terminal buildings during the explosion.

[176], On 5 August, the Council agreed to place sixteen Beirut port officials who had overseen storage and security since 2014 under house arrest, overseen by the army, pending the investigation into the explosions. Igor Grechushkin, owner of the MV Rhosus, was questioned at his home in the Mediterranean island nation on Thursday afternoon.

Image captionBoris Prokoshev (R), captain of the MV Rhosus, and boatswain Boris Musinchak stand near a hold loaded with sacks of ammonium nitrate at Beirut's port in summer 2014. [213][214] On the night of 6 August, the protests against the government that had been ongoing since the previous October resumed, with dozens of protestors near the parliament building calling for the resignation of Lebanese government officials. [24][25], Grechushkin went bankrupt,[a] and after the charterers lost interest in the cargo, he abandoned the ship. [139], Saint George Hospital, one of the city's largest medical facilities, was less than 1 kilometer (5⁄8 mile) from the explosion, and was so badly damaged that staff were forced to treat patients in the street. [133] The Lebanese ambassador to Jordan Tracy Chamoun also resigned. [127] Several countries expressed solidarity by lighting up landmarks and monuments in the colours of the Lebanese flag, including the City Hall of Tel Aviv,[239][l] whereas the Eiffel Tower in Paris went dark at midnight,[249] and the Arab League flew its flag at its headquarters in Cairo at half-mast. Windows and other installations of glass across the city were shattered. But that additional cargo proved too heavy for the Rhosus and the crew refused to take it … [45][46][47][48]It rocked central Beirut and sent a red-orange cloud into the air, which was briefly surrounded by a white condensation cloud. The Rhosus was soon impounded by the Lebanese authorities for failing to pay port fees, and reportedly for being unseaworthy, and never left the port again. [51], By the next morning, the main fire that led to the explosion had been extinguished. The MV Rhosus, a cargo ship owned by a Russian businessman, was carrying 2,750 tons of ammonium nitrate (a highly dangerous chemical compound that is found mostly in fertilizer and explosives) that was confiscated by the Lebanese government in 2014. [142] The hospital's director of intensive care, Dr. Joseph Haddad, was quoted as saying: "There is no St. George Hospital any more. It made the unscheduled detour to Beirut as … [189] Lebanese President Michel Aoun said the government would make up to 100 billion pounds (US$66 million) in aid available to support recovery operations. The government has not named the source of the ammonium nitrate, but the same amount of the chemical arrived in Beirut in November 2013 on a Moldovan-flagged cargo ship, the MV Rhosus. The committee includes the justice, interior and defence ministers, and the head of the top four security agencies: the Army, General Security, Internal Security Forces, and State Security. [27] According to Lloyd's List, the Beirut port authority seized the ship on 4 February 2014, due to US$100,000 in unpaid bills. [172] Doors and windows were destroyed, and ceiling tiles were shaken loose by the shockwave, severing electrical wires. [3] The morning before the explosion, the head of the Rafik Hariri University Hospital, which served as the main coronavirus medical facility in Lebanon, warned that it was approaching full capacity. The cruise ship Orient Queen, berthed nearby, suffered extensive damage and capsized overnight. It remained there ever since — until it detonated on Tuesday. [159][160] On 7 August, the first lawsuit related to the explosions was filed by the ship's owners, Abou Merhi Cruises, whose offices were also destroyed.
