Your Excellency, dear Mr. President,<\/p>\n

It grieved me deeply to learn about the explosions that thundered on Tuesday at Beirut\u2019s port, killing and injuring many people and causing considerable damage to the city\u2019s buildings and infrastructure. Please accept my profound condolences.<\/p>\n

I sincerely empathize with those who have lost their relatives and friends and ask to convey to them my words of consolation and support, and to the injured \u2013 my wishes of the soonest recovery.<\/p>\n

At this time of hardships may the Merciful Lord grant strength to the doctors who are selflessly fighting to save the lives of the victims, to the staff of the rescue services and to all those who are working hard, striving to overcome the aftermaths of the tragedy, and may He grant peace, welfare and tranquillity to Lebanon.<\/p>\n
