The Argentine embassy in Lebanon suffered significant damage inside the building, which is almost inside the area affected by the strong explosion registered this Tuesday in Beirut.
However, Foreign Minister Felipe Solá's spokesperson, Lisandro Sabanés, said that so far, no Argentines have been reported dead or injured , neither in the embassy nor in the area of the explosion.
The embassy - which is not the residence of Ambassador Mauricio Alice - is located in the Achrafieh area of the Lebanese capital.

The building is rented by the Argentine state , said the Solá spokesperson, who has already spoken with Alice to find out the current situation.
Clarín is trying to communicate the ambassador at this time, but to tell the truth, the accredited foreign diplomatic corps in Lebanon avoids giving opinions given the delicate political situation in the Arab country.
