A Terrible Tragedy
Over 2700 tons of high explosive ammonium nitrate cataclysmically exploded in a Beirut port warehouse after confiscation several years prior. It was a known risk that was unfortunately ignored for years despite repeated attempts to address the problems. Condolences to the people of Lebanon who lost someone, and all the best wishes for a speedy rebuilding and recovery.
