Palestinian Prime Minister Mohammed Ishtaye said in a statement that Palestine is "ready to put all its capabilities" at the service of Lebanon and provide any needed assistance immediately.
Hanan Ashrawi, a member of the Palestine Liberation Organization's Executive Committee, also expressed sorrow over the "devastating tragedy" and her wishes for Beirut to overcome the calamity.
In the Gaza Strip, Ismail Haniyeh, head of the Islamic Hamas movement's political bureau, phoned Aoun to express his support for Lebanon.
In a rare move, Israel offered Lebanon humanitarian aid on Tuesday over the explosions.
