Berri: Most Dangerous Blazes are Sectarian Blazes
Parliament Speaker Nabih Berri on Sunday commented on the wildfires that engulfed several Lebanese regions over the past hours, especially in the Tyre region.
In a statement, Berri noted that the “timing and geography” of the fires raise “a host of questions that security and judicial authorities must answer.”
He also said that “as the flames gut what’s left of Lebanon’s green areas,” officials must move to appoint forest guards without any sectarian quotas.
“The most dangerous blazes that cannot be put out are the sectarian blazes that are raging in minds,” Berri warned.
