The Port of Tripoli has been assisting Beirut following the two huge explosions that rocked the capital on 4 August.
Beirut's port was left almost completely destroyed in the blast that killed more than 200 people and wounded around 6,500 others.
The explosions happened next to a grain silo in Beirut's port, most of which was wrecked. Tripoli port director, Ahmed Tamer told Chinese news agency, Xinhua, that the Port of Tripoli was working in coordination with Beirut.
"Tripoli's port is storing products, mainly grains, which arrive in the country since storage areas in Beirut's port were destroyed by the explosions," he told Xinhua in an interview.
However, Mr Tamer noted that the containers' station at Beirut's port was not impacted by the explosions so the port is still receiving containers and products placed in the containers are later given to their importers in Lebanon.
