About

It has been nearly three weeks since an enormous explosion at Beirut's port

economic collapse and the coronavirus pandemic, the blast turned a grim

situation to dire crisis. In the absence of a functioning government,

residents are relying on each other's generosity to survive. Special

correspondent Jane Ferguson reports.
