Lebanese prime minister Hassan Diab has said he is stepping down following protests in the wake of the explosion at a port in Beirut last week.
Less than seven days after the blast – which has killed at least 160 people and wounded about 6,000 – the prime minister said in a televised statement he is resigning.
It follows furious protests in recent days from the Lebanese people.
