Beirut is still reeling from a port explosion that killed over 200 people and injured more than 6,000 last August.
The investigation into the blast remains inconclusive nine months later.
Lebanon is facing its worst crisis since its bloody civil war of 1975-1990.
Its currency has lost 90% of its value over the last 18 months on the informal market, and food inflation has reached 400%.
