Message from DiEM25 member in Beirut: "I escaped. If I were in the living room, I might not have. Heartbreaking. City centre reduced to rubble & the last bits of livelihood people still had, gone. No homes left, no shops, supplies destroyed. We’re safe, but we’re not fine."

[Dr Andrew Delatolla @a_delatolla]

If Lebanese politicians think they have done a good job, let them stand at Martyr Square without their body guards and motorcades to shake the hands of Lebanese citizens currently cleaning up their mess. If they can’t face the people, they should be resigning. #Lebanon #Beirut

[Yanis Varoufakis @yanisvaroufakis]

Devastated by the videos and pictures coming out of Beirut. My deepest sympathy goes to with the people of Beirut. You did not deserve this. Our thoughts are with you. Solidarity!
