Tension over Beirut blast probe deepens Lebanon political crisis

The IMF has started discussions with Lebanon, which is in dire need of assistance with its economic crisis. But the government has been distracted by another crisis – the political infighting over the investigation into the Beirut Port explosion. Tensions led to street battles last week. Now Shia groups, Hezbollah and Amal, have threatened to walk out of the cabinet if the lead judge in the investigation is not removed.
