In Lebanon, a year after the double explosion in the port of Beirut, the families of victims are demanding justice for their loved ones.
The explosion left more than 200 dead, injured thousands and destroyed much of the capital.
The Lebanese want to put the culprits of this neglect behind bars, but for now, the investigation is sluggish.
Our correspondent Noé Pignède returned to the fire station which adjoins the port of Beirut, 10 firefighters who were trying to put out the fire preceding the explosion had lost their lives on August 4.
