On the evening of August 4th, a massive explosion rocked the port of the Lebanese capital of Beirut, causing devastating damage and leaving thousands of casualties. The explosion sent a shockwave across the city and blew out windows up to 10 kilometers away. It was felt as far away as Cyprus in the Mediterranean Sea.
As of the morning of August 5th, the number of reported fatalities exceeded 100, with at least 4,000 people reported injured. At least 48 staff members of the United Nations and 27 members of their families were among the injured. 10 rescuers involved in the operation to contain the damage and to help people have been reported killed.
Initial reports suggested that the explosion may have been caused by an incident in the firework storage area. However, later, Lebanon’s Prime Minister Hassan Diab said that 2,750 metric tons of ammonium nitrate, which is typically used as an agricultural fertilizer, had been stored for six years at a port warehouse without proper safety measures, “endangering the safety of citizens.”
This statement was backed by General Security chief Abbas Ibrahim, who said a “highly explosive material” had been confiscated years earlier and stored in the warehouse, just minutes’ walk from Beirut’s shopping and nightlife districts.
It is still unclear what caused the explosion itself thus laying the ground for various speculations in mainstream media outlets and on social media platforms. In particular, reports suggested that a number of Hezbollah members were in the port area at the moment of the explosion. This immediately caused reports that this may have been a result of some Israeli attack, for example sabotage actions or a somehow unnoticed missile strike, and that the site of the explosion was in fact a part of the Hezbollah military infrastructure.
The Israeli Defense Forces did not officially comment on these speculations. Israeli media, which are often eager to promote supposed Israeli military victories, claimed that Israeli forces did not attack Beirut. In their turn, Hezbollah denounced reports that the explosion happened on one of their sites saying that there was no Israeli attack on August 4.
Nonetheless, it seems that the US leadership has a quite different point of view. Commenting on the situation after a meeting with military officials, President Donald Trump claimed that the incident was an attack. “They seem to think it was an attack. It was a bomb of some kind,” Trump said.
Whatever the real cause of the tragedy turns out to be, the Beirut explosions have already fueled tensions in the region. And despite comments by Hezbollah and Israeli media that it was not a military incident, the warring sides are actively accusing each other. Comments by the US President about a supposed attack on the Beirut port do not make the situation any easier.
Taking into account the recent series of military incidents on the Israeli-Lebanese contact line, and in the Israeli-occupied area of the Golan Heights, any new border provocation may easily lead to a larger escalation. The years of war propaganda and military confrontations together with increased tension within Israeli and Lebanese society respectively have already created conditions in which a further, even small, military incident may appear to be enough to provoke a larger war in the region. This large war is in no interest of Tel Aviv or Hezbollah because it will obviously have a devastating impact on both Israel and Lebanon. In this light, it is especially interesting that the Trump administration is making statements that would contribute to this scenario. There is a chance that in a time of a deepening social and political crisis in the US on top of a complicated economic situation in the runup to the next US Presidential election, some hotheads may believe that a new, theoretically ‘victorious’ war in the Middle East, could help them to remain in power.
Trump is very Reckless with his words
Can’t America do better than this and No Biden is not the answer.

VT says it was a tactical nuke from Israhell–which would not surprise me if true.. https://www.veteranstoday.com/2020/08/05/breaking-israel-nukes-beirut/
Ive seen that too. Someone is trying to start a war.
uncle sam needs desperately to stop silk road and to come out from mid east. there is one last proxy to use…
And that one is…who?
You up vote here because she is saying well known banality that US needs to stop “silk road”? And on top also saying nonsense that they have to ” come out from mid east” when U.S. has major military bases there and global control of oil is still very important for them. US is trying to reinforce their presence in Asia (central Asia) and contain China (block Silk road”) and not to leave Asia (at least for the time being) unless they are forced to…
US would never leave “mid east” unless forced by some major event.
Then you ask her what is she actually talking about…about mysterious “proxy”. Woooo so mysterious I am excited and shaking in my undies!
Am I missing something?!? Am I too slow for you people and you have hidden higher level of communication? Teach me I am dying to learn !
hehe.
imagine who.
same scenario as in 2005- 2006 was between hez and the jews.
“needs desperately to stop silk road and to come out from mid east.”
That’s oxymoron right there my dear… you contradict yourself.
Say something articulate so that we can have decent argument. Your pose and unfinished thoughts and phrases doesn’t impress me for sure.
ok, you don’ t understand a fuck, and I don’t loose my time.
You “don’t understand” because it is difficult to understand that “stopping silk road” and “come out of mid east” are contradictions? Or for some other reason.
>veterans today Why are you trusting a self-confessed jew liar instead of using your fucking brain? Dumbass, nuclear weapons leave radiation all over the place. It would have been known immediately.
what do you now of state of the art nuclear tactical weapons? Are you aware of the ones, which do not have complete fision and can be controlled in strength? From where do you get your info, that there is high radiation? u should inform yourself first before posting unsustainable stiff.
I agree.
He has no clue on things you have just mentioned.
And where did you get that from right from your arse I suppose?! That guy is often on Iranian Press TV! Do they invite “self confessed jew” ever?!? That guy is anti-Trump anti-IsraHell and pro Iran from what can be seen from majority of the articles. Accusing IsraHell for nuking Beirut can’t be done by “self-confessed jew” unless of course you brain and your logic doesn’t work at all. It can be done only by somebody in US who is against IsraHell !
And he is full of crap in his article I agree on that of course just like 95% of other journalist that are writing on this subject and are just guessing about what really happened and why. So they are all exagerating and guessing
Almost all media is full of bullshit and sensationalism on the subject. Not many facts and too much guessing.
I am well aware that Gordon Duff is a very questionable individual but my comment in no way justifies your extremely rude response. Duff also says the Oklahoma City bombing was a nuke–I was there and know it was not, but things have changed in the ensuing 25 years. I was merely hopeful of inviting intelligent responses from people who may actually know something–which kind of leaves you out troll.
Sorry for being rude, I thought you were a disinfo shill like so many others. I’m assuming you aren’t after all, so my bad. I still stand by what I said about a nuclear weapon leaving ample radiation signatures which would have been detected in short notice.
well you are wrong about tactical
“nuclear weapons leaving ample radiation signatures” it is not necessarily so and depends on many things
there is no radiation activity left. so, no bomb. a sabotage.
bombs without radiation do exist you know…. there is also “a sabotage” with conventional bomb so I do miss your point. there are tactical nukes with only 0,3 Kt TNT yield and practically no radiation at all
no.
“no” what? get from your high horse and speak finally!
it’s the most probably NUKE if you speak French read the article if not read translation I have posted just now on the thread here. Source is very reliable French investigative journalist
LINK to French article
https://www.voltairenet.org/article210672.html
Bs. VT reported same type of report several times. VT said it happened in Syria few years back…it didnt.
Not possible. The radiation levels would spike and every gizmo and gadget installed around the World to go off should such an event occur. Let’s not forget the survivors nearby. Thus far, the injuries of the local population do not show any signs of such an attack.
On for example 0,3 kilotons yield explosion? I don’t think so!
Not if it was an underground mini-nuke explosion, most of the radiation is contained under ground and the rest goes more or less directlly up in the air, not much to the sides. You can learn about mini-nukes and mini-nuke bombings (including the one in Beirut, not this one) here: https://drive.google.com/drive/folders/1hNxIfAAI32qmDIuM7sD588QEBhYfMQXo?usp=sharing
Like 9/11 nuking of WTC (Two towers) and pools of molten steel poring like lava on the WTC site during clean up process. Showing extremely high temperatures even long after the colapse of Two towers
VT is untrustworthy. All about sensation.
…..unlike all other Western trusted media who hate sensationalism and NEVER LIE ! :-)))
Don’t get me wrong. That’s not what I meant. But VT can often get ahead. Resulting in misinformation. You will find the article below interesting. It seems to indeed be nuclear. Low yield bunker buster nuclear. Fired by Israel. Similar to the incidents in Syria. And the 7 Iranians ships.

HERE TRANSLATION FOR EVERYBODY
Israel destroys East Beirut with new weapon by Thierry Meyssan
Israel’s first prime minister has ordered the destruction of a Hezbollah arms warehouse in Beirut using a new weapon. This being poorly known caused considerable damage in the city killing more than 100 people, injuring 5,000 and destroying many buildings. This time, it will be difficult for Benjamin Netanyahu to deny. Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu authorized a strike against a Hezbollah arms warehouse with a new weapon, which has been tested for seven months in Syria. It is not known whether the second prime minister, Benny Gantz, has agreed. The strike was carried out on August 4, 2020, at the exact location designated by Benjamin Netanyahu during his speech to the United Nations on September 27, 2018 [1]. Hezbollah had evacuated its weapons from this warehouse right after Netanyahu’s speech. It is not known what the weapon used is. However, it has already been tested in Syria since January 2020. It is a missile whose head has a tactical nuclear component causing a smoke mushroom characteristic of nuclear weapons. This is obviously not an atomic bomb in the strategic sense. This weapon was tested in Syria on a countryside plain, then in the Persian Gulf on the waters against Iranian military ships. This is the first time that it has been used in an urban environment, in a special environment that has made the breath and vibrations reflect on the water and the mountains. Far from destroying only the port of Beirut, it killed a hundred people, injured at least 5,000 others, and largely destroyed the eastern part of the city (the western part was largely protected by the grain silo). Israel immediately activated its networks in the international media to cover up its crime and give credence to the idea of the accidental explosion of a fertilizer stockpile. As so often, false culprits are pointed out, and the international media machine repeats this lie over and over again in the absence of any investigation. Yet there was a smoke mushroom incompatible with the fertilizer explosion thesis. Just as neither Syria nor Iran communicated about this weapon when they were hit, Lebanese political parties immediately struck a silent deal so as not to demoralize their people. An investigation has been opened, not into the cause of the explosion, but into the responsibility of port personnel in the storage of these fertilizers believed to be the cause of the explosion. However, this lie soon turned against the political parties that imagined it.
The United Nations Tribunal for Lebanon, which was due to release its verdict in the case of the assassination of former Prime Minister Rafik Hariri in 2005, has decided to postpone it for a few days. Similarly in this case, the explosion of a pickup truck obscured the firing of a missile with a new weapon, just as this time the nitrate explosion obscured the firing of a missile with another new weapon.
It could only be an underground mini-nuke explosion, not above ground.
Considering this image with the ‘Goodbye’ spray painted and taken with a high end SLR with long range telephoto, and this being a country with Arabic as its first language the use of ‘Goodbye’ was intended for a different audience. It does point to the ‘elites’ instead of badly mismanaged port operations. https://uploads.disquscdn.com/images/cbec658eb8e82628dc6a720fc99b4b601ccf7bddca3d79a3bfa6236dc76f7629.jpg
I have slowed that particular video shown on VT (the normal color one) many times, that ‘missile’ was a bird flying past moments before the blast. https://uploads.disquscdn.com/images/9fd9da1158fa2103b0d303e3c2d7b95d61d59b4ffb51abec4ce04bb9ab52fbf3.jpg
As for the rest of the images, the missile coming in does look too clean, the edges too sharp to match the more fuzzy outlines of the dude standing with hands on his forehead.
Lebanon should put politics aside and get help from Israel: https://twitter.com/DavidADaoud/status/1291061500275294214
Another bombing? Israel is too smart to leave fingerprints; however, hiding Israel’s motive is impossible. Shalom.
What motive? we are after Hezbollah in SL only.
That’s a good one, by way of deception iron zion. We both know the endgame is world dominion and the enslavement of all goyim
Now you’re kinda “only”.
Fuck israel. They are nothing but trouble.
You cant say one week we will bomb your infrastructure, and the next week, we will help you.
Do you have the memory span of a goldfish?
Tragedies can bring people together. No one can remain indifferent in the face of the sad sights from Beirut. A little compassion will not hurt you, take a break from the hateful and angry that you usually are .
ill say tell that to the people of gaza
Watch your mouth Mike, you know I can talk the same shit too.
You are honest, your government is not. You are being mislead to your death.
Maybe I am being misled, but don’t disrespect my country you know how I feel about it. Back to the topic, our war is against Hezbollah not against Beirut’s citizens, if we wanted to attack we would have attacked other targets in SL that pose a greater risk for us.
Silly boy children should get a life outside of the web. You are nothing.
Mossad planted a bomb to destroy one warehouse in Beirut sea port and surely they didnt know that 2700 tons of Amonium Nitrate were stored next to or at least such amount.
when it comes to help, one thing is sure: you should need medical “help”
There is little doubt that Israel was aware of the ammonium nitrate stored in the Beirut port. Israel has a history of bombing Beirut including oil storage facilities causing economic and environmental havoc. Cui bono: ?
but not in this occasion. too daring. it is a US covert operation to create a chaos on the silk road. today lebanon was about to sign a contract with china for the use of lebanon’ port. now the port is gone…
Well, now Lebanon can sign another contract with the Chinese in rebuilding the port.
Iran has landed in Lebanon with materials for infrastructures, it is important they rebuild it fast, in order to control block 9 of Leviathan gazfield and stop the Eastmed pipeline. Here a story about (((Igor Grekushkin))), the jew with russian passport who literally abandoned the cargo of AN in 2013 at the port of Beirut. It was a bomb put in Lebanon then, and with complicity of some high profile lebanese politicians. There are traitors, and it is not Hezbollah for sure.
https://southfront.org/he-abandoned-the-deadly-cargo-meet-the-mysterious-businessman-at-center-of-the-beirut-blast-saga/
Yes it’s important to rebuild it as fast as possible for economic reasons. However, destruction of a port doesn’t disqualify a nation’s claim to a gas field in the Mediterranean.
I agree. Mossad likely knew. But I doubt they did it. It was the USA. World Bank. IMF. To derail China’s Silk Road project.
It was similar for Syria now nobody mentions Silk road for Syria or Syrian port.
Still silk road goes through Turkey to Europe and doesn’t depend on one port in Lebanon. They have direct link for other ports through Turkey. There is much bigger problem for IsraeHell in Lebanon called Hezbollah and US see them also as very big problem that creates Iranian Shia outreach to Mediterranean with that Shia arc Iran-Iraq-Syria,Lebanon. With the collapse of ISIS and Al Qaeda forces in Syria they are even bigger problm now than before
Turkey now is with Iran and Russia in Lebanon in order to watch that the Israelis don’t try to steal the block 9 of Leviathan gazfield in order to build Eastmed pipeline.
Thanks for the info.
It is the Med gas that is major game in the town now, while conflict in Syria is pushed behind all that it seams. If those 3 find strong common interests in those gas reserves, that will help healing process in Syria.
It was a nuke, search in Veterans Today and they even have pictures from an infrared camera.
I have posted that article here Pedro There is much better article from “voltaire.net” but it is in French (you can use google translate (I have copy pasted translated text here on the thread also )
Unfortunately, as long as the Zionist cancer exists, there is no cure for Lebanon or the region.
The scenario is the same as 2005- 2006, the war between Hez and the Ziorats is about to start.
Go to Veterans Today an american news platform and see for yourself if it wasn´t 2 missiles, one of them a low heald nuke. It have been caught by infrared camera. The IAEA said first that it was a nuke explosion and later said that they had a failure in the equipment.
Israel Hits Beirut with Nuclear Missile, Trump and Lebanese Govt. Confirm (continually updating) Trump confirms this was a bombing, not an accident and is immediately scourged by pro-Israel press…starting with the Daily Beast
Israeli Delilah missile carrying 6 kiloton (6000 tons of TNT equivalent) nuclear missile (unretouched photo via VT Damascus) Tineye says this is a unique image and doesn’t appear anywhere on the web. We, however, are always suspicious when something seems ‘too good to be true.’ ” First explosion was caused by Gabriel anti ship missile of Israel. The second explosion was caused by Israeli Delilah missile from F16. Our country is in complete jeopardy with this lazy and corrupt regime.” VT: A general in the Lebanese Army reports that Israel dropped a tactical nuclear weapon on the port of Beirut today. He reports that this was done to collapse the current political regime there and revolt against Hezbollah.
Their denial, almost identical to Israel’s supports this hypothesis.
As the lies begin, nothing about this explosion, the mushroom cloud or the strength of the explosion is fireworks, which was the first lie, then ammonium nitrate fertilizer, they say under 3k tons, which was stored for years to use on Lebanon’s golf courses, when they decide to build them. No, nothing about today is funny.
We also add that earlier today, Netanyahu’s statement which we believe is Israel taking credit for the attack. Beirut is still bomb damaged by Israel from 2006. How you take Netanyahu’s statements as outlined in Times of Israel today, is a matter of faith, trust or conjecture. The weapon was 6 kilotons. That report now:
“Getting reports from Beirut, a tactical miniature nuclear bomb has been used to attack the port, nuclear experts and researchers have randomly pointed out to the reacted particles in the fire ball.
#Beirut blast horror: Mystery explosion ‘like a nuclear bomb’ tears through city with boom heard as far away as Cyprus https://t.co/ZmSO9Dnj4Y pic.twitter.com/s1xGcoLp76 — Daily Mail Online (@MailOnline) August 4, 2020
Even if there is going to be a government cover up for peace and political implications in the coming hours, one thing is clear, it is a clandestine operation by some anti-Lebanon foreign agency not by some random terrorist (non-state actor).
Terrorists involved in Urban Warfare in ME do not have access to these highly advance tactical weapons. If they have it now, then someone is equipping them for political gains. Let us wait for the official statements from Lebanon. I hope our friends from Beirut are safe.
As per my latest source of information from Beirut. There is going to be a government cover up. The story about “Nitrate in the containers” is going to be declared as the original cause of the second massive explosion that caused the major damage. This will become the official narrative in the msm. However, what influential and credible sources from Beirut are telling me is this: “The Beirut explosion is about 100 times the energy than the 2015 Tianjin explosion, or 5.4 kilotons of TNT equivalent (using linear extrapolation from Tianjin, which involved 800 tonnes of ammonium nitrate).
Conventional nukes against Japan had 15 to 21 kilotons. But this explosion is different, it is because of modern tactical nuke that contains up to 10 kilotons of the hybrid material including uranium. It is this reason why we still have acid and radiation in the air. The storage facilities near the grain elevator are NOT marked for hazardous material storage, but are instead marked for general cargo. Therefore, you can guess it, what we will be fed in the coming hours.” – Ghayet Ali
” First explosion was caused by Gabriel anti ship missile of Israel. The second explosion was caused by Israeli Delilah missile from F16. Our country is in complete jeopardy with this lazy and corrupt regime.” Hezbollah, we are told, is expected to retaliate against Israel and they say there is no way for Syria not to be brought in.
Jeff Smith of the IAEA confirms this is a nuclear explosion. The lies about fireworks in ships and fertilizer are what we always get. You don’t store either one downtown in a major city like Beirut under any circumstances. Not much farming in Beirut and they don’t celebrate the 4th of July there.
The smoke could well be missile fuel which may mean a missile storage facility was hit by Israel. We have confirmation from Israel that they were planning to attack Beirut 5 days ago in retaliation for Hezbollah’s military attacks on Golan, which were not reported anywhere.
We are told Lebanon asked for nuclear investigators from Russia but there is no attempt to protect the site which, even if this were a modern clean weapon, still be radioactive. https://www.veteranstoday.com/2020/08/05/breaking-israel-nukes-beirut/
“Delilah” (or “Dalila”) is small UAV-kamikaze. It carry few tens kilogramms of common explosive.
Yes I know… like the one that have destroyed one Syrian Pantsir (last year I think)It has TV camera installed for kamikaze targeting so there was video on that “‘leaked” by IsraHell
I just copy pasted one article on the topic, I didn’t say that what he was saying is truth. Journalists are usually full of crap and try to make sensations out of things they don’t know much about ….in situations like this. Plenty of other journalist talking bollocks, it will take some time before truth comes to the surface (if ever)
no radiation activity spotted in the area, so no nuclear missile.
There are tactical nukes with very low yield and very low radiation emission and that disperse quickly. So your logic is wrong if you categorically dismiss that possibility.
I’ve got a fair idea who it was. It was the same people that did 911, the London bombings etc they are satanists based in Europe and isreal
I don’t know that….For me it is plausible idea that Israel is behind this attack (it is up to military experts to have their analyses of the explosion and say if it could be tactical nuke)

”The jewish race needs to be abolished so that the planet is Jew free” Fixed that for you. ”Atheist” jews behave the exact same way as Orthodox kikes, if not much worse. Soros as well as most Jews in the porn industry identify as atheists, but also say they are jews.
It is a race. Only some of them follow Judaism, but all of them are parasites.
Once institutional Judaism, including Israel are abolished. The existing Jews will die off and won’t be replaced. Which will result in extinction.

https://www.infowars.com/seen-netanyahu-warned-of-hezbollah-missile-site-in-beirut-warehouse/
The attackers intended to blow up the alleged ”firework” warehouse. Little did they know there was Amm Nitrate stored in its vicinity. Now with Trump initial narrative of possible ”Attack”, culprits are on a rush!!
If tactical nuke, i my non-expert opinion, the mushroom cloud would have risrn higher and lasted longer due to intense heat. Plus there would be halos. And, radio activity would be detected. Plenty of ammonipum nitrate accidents worlwide. Moon Of Alabama thinks it all starte with a welding job on a door to the ammonium nitrate warehouse.
Welding will do nothing. You can burn this stuff, if you want. it is a strong oxidizer. to explode (not detonate as it happened) it need to be mixed with something, which could be oxidized (burnt).
No mushrooms necessarily New tech tactical nukes with scalable technology – variable yield “dial-a-yield” in U.S. gravitational nuke B-61-12 (Israel has always the same tech stolen from US) goes from 0.3 to 340 kilotons
Since for you are those just numbers for comparison early not so powerful nukes used in
Hiroshima and Nagasaki (mushrooms) “Little Boy” was 15 kilotons (TNT) which could be 50 TIMES LESS than when it is nuke dialed on its lowest yield 0,3
no nukes, no radiation level found in the area. Only an internal sabotage.
There is no such thing as an accident, if something happens, someone or something meant that to happen.
So what is the difference between 2700 tons of ammonium nitrate and 2,7 kiloton nuclear bomb? Amount of heat? Mushroom cloud, radiation? Please I’m not an expert.
TNT equivalent is 0,8. 2750 tons of common ammonium ~2200 tons of TNT. Or small tactical nuclear charge, but without radiation (including gamma-rays). Hiroshima and Nagasaki were destroyed by 13-18 and 21KT bombs.
having an atomic device with incomplete fision, radiation is minimal, with almost no gamma radiation. You will see a higher alpha radiation for some days, but vanishing fast. nothing to be seen after 10 days. Benefit is that Geiger counters don’t detect alpha radiation :-)
It appears to be a low yield. Nuclear head bunker buster. Fired by Israel. The coordinate was the exact one. Netanyahu mentioned in 2018 at the UN.
See this article. Not translate to English yet. But you can easily do it with Chrome.
https://www.voltairenet.org/article210672.html
All of it. Immediately blamed on. Ammonium nitrate. To divert.
Even President Trump himself said it was an ”Attack”. Look back at the recent chain of explosions in Iran, along with brewing tensions and past israel’s promise to hit lebanon’s infrastructure led to this tragedy.
What is ammonium nitrate, the chemical that exploded in Beirut? Read this an understand what happened.Yesterday I said this stuff is used in mining and mixed with diesel . It is also used in agricultural as a nitrogen fertilizer. You could take some of what is used as an explosive and spread it lightly on your lawn. In a couple of weeks you would have the lushes green lan in town. How do I know this. I have done all three. Mining , agriculture and lawn. To claim it was a nuclear device just shows ignorance and stupidity by someone wanting too appear knowledgeable when if fact they were talking shit. Now read an article by an expert that confirms what I said yesterday plus what was seen on the videos. What is not known is how did the original fire start. Accident or by design. https://www.stuff.co.nz/world/middle-east/122359308/what-is-ammonium-nitrate-the-chemical-that-exploded-in-beirut
There was no nuclear device or anything. Ammonium oxide was the main cause.
Exactly.
Without material mixed in to be burnt, no explosion would have happened, if there would be a fire or an explosion. The question is: what was the burnable material present, which makes the amonium nitrate explosive?
That is what the experts who are investigating too determine. The best I can come up with is from https://www.scientificamerican.com/article/what-is-ammonium-nitrate-the-chemical-that-exploded-in-beirut/ WHAT COULD HAVE CAUSED THE EXPLOSION? Ammonium nitrate does not burn on its own. Instead, it acts as a source of oxygen that can accelerate the combustion (burning) of other materials. For combustion to occur, oxygen must be present. Ammonium nitrate prills provide a much more concentrated supply of oxygen than the air around us. This is why it is effective in mining explosives, where it’s mixed with oil and other fuels. At high enough temperatures, however, ammonium nitrate can violently decompose on its own. This process creates gases including nitrogen oxides and water vapor. It is this rapid release of gases that causes an explosion. Ammonium nitrate decomposition can be set off if an explosion occurs where it’s stored, if there is an intense fire nearby. The latter is what happened in the 2015 Tianjin explosion, which killed 173 people after flammable chemicals and ammonium nitrate were stored together at a chemicals factory in eastern China.
Also as it had been sitting there for sometime it compressed which is what they do with it in mining to get a bigger stronger explosion.
It looks like a series of bad mistakes and a catastrophe the result. I do hope that countries do help rather than use it for political gain as the people are suffering from acts of stupidity and or ignorance. Best I can do sorry.
Do you see what I see ?
” According to the MarineTraffic tracking portal, Rhosus was built in 1986 and has been through quite a number of owners. Its recent history began in 2012 when it was bought by Teto Shipping – a company registered in the Marshall Islands and owned by a Cyprus-based, Russian-born businessman, Igor Grechushkin – just about a year before it was seized by the Lebanese port authorities. The company itself was formed that same year and Rhosus appears to have been its only vessel. It is now becoming clear, however, that the ship could hardly have been called a worthy vessel, even then. ”

not all carelessness derives from malign acts. without evidence, I doubt that either USA or Israel caused this tragedy. In any case it seems that poor port management exists in Beirut….2.7 million tonnes of combustible material in summer heat: not advisable
looks like cabal is taking out key infrastructure…loosh liquidation

Could also be an underground mini-nuke. It wouldn’t be the first time for Beirut.
Our war drums also beat after this attack on America’s soil on innocent American citizens.

Could be digitally added. If the missile was real, then how come Lebanese air defenses failed to detect it? Or maybe they did, and are covering it up for some reason? Only time will tell.
