No more details, yet...
I predicted that would would hear about aid workers being killed by gangs by the weekend.
Everybody is being VERY cryptic about this...
If it were a chopper down, they’d have likely already said so.
It’s weird to hope it’s an aftershock, but at least that’s the least sinister option.....
Mass causality event?
One of their previously substandard buildings fell down on more people?
0bama’s fault.

Mass casualty event?? Is this in any way akin to a ‘man caused disaster’???
Food, Supplies, Medical should be dispensed from military secured positions.
...not on the streets.
Clearly because of Global Warming!!
Very vague though.
Mass causality event?
My God, I don’t even want to think what that
might be. Probably include lots of casualties.
I don’t think there’d be a machete attack on US aid workers. If it says Americans, it probably means military in this context, and mass casualty usually means explosion or something that is not individually delivered.
It could be an explosion of a petroleum tank at the port, it could be a terrorist attack. I guess we’ll find out.
Quagmire. Bring the Americans home.
“30 Americans have been hurt in an accident while unloading aid”
Stack of containers topple over?
It could be a roof falling in...there was an earthquake there with many aftershocks...let’s not all get so excited.
CNN was showing some smoke from a distance.
