I realize the magnitude of the crisis. I know your fatigue and understand the suffering of those who lost their homes, those who lost their work or source of livelihood, and those waiting to be able to repair their homes or return to their town and restore their lives.

The financial prosecution has shelved the case, buried its papers in its drawers. The waste merchants bury the waste in the belly of its mountain for the beneficiaries; they get medals, decorations and honors from it, while people get harm. 'This is' the country. May God help Sidon.
