Marwan Abboud said dozens were still missing, many of them foreign workers.

On Sunday was a second night of violence in the city, as police clashed with angry protesters with the government's response to the disaster, the BBC writes, Pryskopi notes.

The resignations of three cabinet ministers and some MPs have failed to vent the protestors' anger.

Finance Minister Ghazi Wazni is reportedly also preparing to resign, ahead of a cabinet meeting called by Prime Minister Hassan Diabb to discuss the crisis after the blast. /Periscopi/
