Lebanese environment minister submitted on Sunday his resignation following Beirut's blasts, reported Xinhua, quoting MTV local TV channel.

Demianos Kattar's resignation comes following the resignation of Information Minister Manal Abdel Samad earlier in the day.

A number of MPs also submitted their resignations a day earlier due to the explosions that hit Lebanon and destroyed a big part of the city.
