Two weeks ago, a huge explosion devastated Beirut, the capital of the Middle East nation of Lebanon. The blast occurred when a stockpile of dangerous chemicals ignited and the resulting explosion shocked the world. Coming off years of war, an economic crisis, political instability and the Covid pandemic, this was exactly what Lebanon did not need.
