Beirut resident Hoda Melki captured a touching video of her mother playing the piano among the debris of her damaged apartment on Wednesday, a day after a major blast tore through the Lebanese capital.
The explosion on Tuesday killed at least 137 people, injured 5,000 and pushed up to 300,000 out of their homes after the shock waves ripped out doors and shattered windows miles inland.
The death toll is expected to rise. Officials blamed the blast on a huge stockpile of highly explosive material stored for years in unsafe conditions at the port.
The performance of traditional Scottish folk song Auld Lang Syne appears to bring hope to Lebanon's capital, a city still scarred by civil war that ended three decades ago and reeling from an economic meltdown and a surge in coronavirus infections.
