“Our thoughts are with those who have lost love ones. We wish the wounded a speedy recovery. We will offer Lebanon our help,” Merkel said, according to a tweet from Demmer.
Australian Prime Minister Scott Morrison also tweeted his support to the people of Lebanon.
“Terrible scenes out of Beirut after a major explosion. Our hearts go out to those caught up in this tragedy and to our Australian Lebanese community waiting to hear from their loved ones. Australia stands ready to provide our support, including to any Australians affected,” the prime minister said.
