The company that bought the ammonium nitrate which exploded in Beirut last August had possible links to two Syrian businessmen under U.S. sanctions for ties to President Bashar al-Assad, according to a report by a Lebanese journalist and London company filings.

The U.S. Treasury accused Mudalal Khoury in 2015 of “an attempted procurement of ammonium nitrate in late 2013”. It sanctioned his brother Imad a year later for engaging in business activities with Mudalal. Haswani was sanctioned in 2015 on charges of helping Assad’s government to buy oil from Islamic State militants, which he has denied.

Dozens of companies can share listed addresses and such links do not necessarily prove company owners are connected. But it is rare for firms to move their registers, particularly to the same address on the same day, according to a Reuters review of filings by hundreds of companies. Reuters could not reach Haswani for comment. His son told Reuters in Moscow that his father was unlikely to comment on allegations of links to the chemicals because they are “total nonsense”.The findings about the possible links between Savaro and the Syrian businessmen have raised questions among some in Beirut over whether the ammonium nitrate, which is used for fertilizer but also explosives, may have been destined for Syria.

Corrupted MSM .. Are trying to hide Hezbollah's crimes !?

Tragically, Hezbollah -- the ultimate owner of the chemicals -- has successfully intimidated every Lebanese politician from telling the truth. I pity the Lebanese people, a wonderful nation, who must live in constant fear. One more reason for a change of regime in Iran.

No, really? Yes, we know it had something to do with Syria and Hizballah. Will anyone be held accountable? No. Will we ever know the full truth? Hell no.

Why blame syria? It was beruit court that seized the biat. Ut was beruit court that ordered to move the chemical to the warehouses. The beruit court did not respond to requests to move the chemicals else where to reduce risk. It wasnt boat captain or others fault.
