Thank you very much for watching. Hello. This is a new issue of the interview from france 24. Beirut, the region, is today destroyed. To understand what has been happening, i have e the governor of beirut with me. Welcome to you. Thank you. What is the extent of the damage in a root after the explode in beirut after the explosion . Beirut is a city that is in ruins. It is almost as if it has b been struck by a nuclear bomb. The port in beirut is entirely destroyed. Half of the houses in beirut are either partially or entirely destroyed. There is a shattered glass in the streets. There is an ever present danger for people in the streets, because debris is constantly falling from buildings and people dont know what to do. They dont want to leave their homes and they cant stay in their homes. Crisis is quite drastic and the lebanese government isnt able to deal with such a catastrophe. In fact, i dont think any country in the world would know exactly how to deal with such a crisis. It is for this reason that the people are angry. People feel that the governmental authorities arent doing enough. Is,the truth of the matter there was so much destruction and we have little means at our disposal. We almost have nothing that we can work with, and we are still suffering the first shock. That is why we need a few days for us to be able to muster up our strength that would enable us to be able to help people. One in 300,000 people are homeless. What have you done to help them . We are monitoring the situation closely. We are monitoring what is happening in the field closely and we have contacted a number of the neighboring towns to seek their aid. We have provided apartments and homes to rehouse a number of citizens, but people are afraid of leaving their homes unprotected, because they are fearful of home invaders. For that reason, the townhall policemen a group of and policewomen to carry out night watches. They have arrested a number of people trying to break into othershomes. We are also keeping a close eye on the city borders. We have provided basic needs, materials soction they can start repairs. Wewe are hoping people get backo their homes. Eight is pouring in. Aid is pouring in. Who is in charge of the aid . Can you aaron t eveveryone will geget guarantee eveveryone wl get them. At this time, we have received no Financial Aid at the townhall. It is through the National Government organizations. It to all working to get try to deal with the situation. The problem is one of poor information. We dont have all of the information. The disaster is so vast, the devastation is so vast that all we do seem so futile, so little, compared to her large how large this problem is. There is concerned about air whattion and they wonder sort of toxic air they are breathing . Have you taking taken steps or given them advice or instruction . From the very outset, we tried to carry out a number of tests. We originally but there would be a risk of radiation. In fact, we were alwlways sure f the fact. However, we then learned the pollution was in fact chlorinebased. So we are talking about chemical pollution. Such pollution is almost impossible to deal with. So the air pollution i first mention has beeeen carried out o sea by a changing wind. The air r is now perfectly breathable. This means that those who blast would die because of ththchlorine g gas . No, that is not what i am saying. I dont think the pollution levels in the air are that high. Have you carried out any investigations about this . That is not something for the townhall to do. That is up to the National Authorities to deal with. What have you asked the National Authorities or anybody else to do that . We have a number of priorities before dealing with the air and lucian. And pollution. We have to remove the rubble. We have priorities and we cannot deal with air pollution for the time being, given there are still injured people buried under the rubble. You extract under the rubble . Therenk they are are 10 to 15 people buried in the rubble. However, we dont hahave a specific list of names of the peoplele missing, because a a lf pepeople havent been repeported missining. They dont have any family or loved ones who report them as missing. As a governor, did you know there were explosives of this sort that were stored in the port . Beirut isort in independent. It is not within the jurisdiction of the Governors Office nor of the townhall. It is for thatat reason we weree never informed of the presence ofof such materials or such productsts in ththe port. Had we been informed o of it, we would have done everything in our power to rememove them fromm the pororts. Responsibletually for this . Me to say whop p to is guilty. Wewe need to l let the Justice System deal with that. There many other Hazardous Substances elsewhere. Have you carried out investigations as requiuired . There are government bodies in lebanonon looking into that t ai think they are doioing a sound job. I think sucuch a situation wont repeat itself in the future. What abouout the Cultural Heritage of beirut . It is a major issue. We have a number of majoror concerns. In fact, there are twowo major issues to try y and way up,p, eighgh uphey way w bebecause they weig against each other. Hthere are some buildings that may collapse and we have to ensure that they dont. On the other hand, there are a number of heritage buildings that are part of lebanon heriritage and they need to be protected because of that. So we haveve to detect heritage buildings, what we have to ensurere those buildldings thatd to be desestroyed or destroyed, and it is a are destroyed. It is a delicate balance. Have you set up a committee . . We have set up a committee. Workinge 1 100 engineers on behalf of townhall and also volunteers. Engineers from the United Kingdom and europe as well. There are also a number of lebanese volunteers. They are all working together to inspect the buildings and then they are drafting reports. Decided tododay, we evict a number off people from buildings. They are no longer to enter the buildings, because they are likely to fall. Because the buildings are likely to fall. Macron and hisl visit, have you set up lands to rebuild the port . Talkesident macron didnt of rebuilding. It is speeches, he spoke quite generally about support to lebanon and of his love for lebanon. President macron visited ground zero, vivisited this site, and e was shshocked. He didnt have much time to talk about such measures. What about the wheat silos . As for the wheat silos, they were entirely destroyed, and that is why they have to be rebuilt entirely, silos. The lebanese government will have to be dealing with the crisis all the while we are waiting for new silos to be built. On top of that, we have to deal with the issue of food supply. As a judge, what sort of actions do you think can be takenn and in the heart of moscow to place the best represents what vladimir
