The Hungarian interior ministry will send a group of technical experts to Beirut to help mitigate the effects of Tuesday’s blast in that city, the head of the Prime Minister’s Office told his regular press conference on Thursday.
Gergely Gulyás said that the Lebanese government had requested such assistance on Wednesday night, adding that the experts would leave for Beirut later on Thursday.

Gulyás expressed his government’s condolences to the Lebanese people, and said he hoped that an investigation would ascertain that the explosion was not a deliberate act.
Hungary has also offered to send five experts in disaster management to Beirut.
Hungary responded to a call from the European Union’s Emergency Response Coordination Centre (ERCC) by deploying experienced experts in search and rescue, healthcare and logistics, the national disaster management authority said on Thursday.
