Hugh Thesz Posted August 4, 2020 Share Posted August 4, 2020 (edited) I am not a regular contributer to this amazing place but I can not find a relevant place to ask this. What the fuck was that explosion in Beruit earlier. It looks on a Buncefield level of destruction; if not more. Edited August 4, 2020 by Hugh Thesz Spelling.

Paid Members BigJag Posted August 4, 2020 Paid Members Share Posted August 4, 2020 Nobody seems to know. There's been some talk of it being an explosives warehouse site. Seems a crazy place to be storing that amount of ordnance. I don't think I've ever seen an explosion of that magnitude outside of a cartoon.  Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hugh Thesz Posted August 4, 2020 Author Share Posted August 4, 2020 Exactly. Looks as if that hotel lookig building has been levelled. Â Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Paid Members Lion_of_the_Midlands Posted August 4, 2020 Paid Members Share Posted August 4, 2020 They are now saying that there was 2750 tonnes of ammonium nitrate that had been left in storage for 6 years that caused the blast. The videos of it blowing up are crazy. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
