Iran Press/ Middle East: Aoun, in remarks published on the Presidency Twitter account, called for an emergency cabinet meeting on Wednesday.
Lebanese President added that it was "unacceptable" that 2,750 tonnes of ammonium nitrate was stored in a warehouse for six years without safety measures and vowed that those responsible would face the "harshest punishments.''
Two massive explosions rocked Beirut on Tuesday, flattening much of the port and damaging buildings across the capital.
