EXCLUSIVE For more than a decade, Lebanon's central bank charged commercial banks commissions without saying they went to a company controlled by the central bank governor’s brother, according to documents seen by @Reuters

With @samianakhoul
Thread 1/12
reuters.com/markets/europe…
These commissions came to light when Swiss requested cooperation from Lebanon for a probe into “aggravated money laundering” & embezzlement at the central bank.

The figure involved? More than $300 million allegedly taken by governor Riad Salameh’s brother, Raja, from 2002-15

2/
Swiss prosecutors alleged large sums eventually made it into accounts held by Riad Salameh while more than $200m was transferred back to Lebanon — the BIG question being, where did that money go? More on that later.

After the #BeirutBlast, reconstruction was largely left to volunteers/NGOs amid heartwarming community spirit.

But the near-absence of state coordination has led to a fragmented response that in some areas has deepened inequalities & created tensions

Syrian refugee Waad Hariri was happy to have found a community in Beirut after fleeing Syria's Daraa in 2011.

Soon after the blast, her landlord in Beirut's Karantina accused her of taking aid & pushed her to leave.

"We've lost the community we lived in for 10 years," she said
While her children used to play in Karantina's big public park, the family now lives next to a main road on Beirut's eastern edge.

"When we take them there to see their friends, they cry and refuse to come back," Hariri's husband, Raed, told me. Image

EXCLUSIVE: #Lebanon banks have swallowed at least $250 million in UN humanitarian aid for Syrian & Palestinian refugees and poor Lebanese since 2019 via bad exchange rates negotiated with UN agencies, a @TRF_Stories investigation finds

news.trust.org/item/202106170…
Thread (1/12)
Most losses stem from a joint WFP/UNHCR/UNICEF program worth $400 million in 2020 for Syrian refugees.

Losses of a third to half were also recorded in:
-WFP assistance for 105,000 poor Lebanese
-UNRWA assistance for Palestinian refugees - even amid a severe funding crisis.

2/12
These massive losses took place at a time when
- Roughly half of Lebanese are poor
- More than 2/3 of Palestinian refugees are poor
- Nine out of 10 Syrian refugees are extremely poor

UN orgs essentially handed banks millions of $ while many people struggled to buy food.

"We have to say it as it is: what we found here was a second Beirut bomb."

That's from the director of the German company tasked with removing *1000 tons* of explosive chemicals dumped in 52 containers at Beirut's port for decades.
n-tv.de/panorama/Beiru…
This means we now know of almost 4,000 tons of hazardous, explosive materials being stored at Beirut's port over extended periods of time. In the heart of the city. What an absolute criminal disaster.
Note: Lebanon has a history of being a place for dumping chemical waste. The Lebanese Forces militia were paid to dump 1000s of tons of chemical waste during the civil war, according to GreenPeace + leaked Army report

Authorities then covered it up

One year ago, George Zreik self-immolated over his daughter’s school fees.

“The day before he died, Zreik drove his taxi to the school where his daughter was enrolled, walked onto the grass of its courtyard, poured fuel on his body & set himself ablaze”
