The cars below the building had all been warped, their windows shattered.

WOW! I amd sure some of the damage to the cars is from flying debris, but most must have been from the shock wave.

The unanswered question is what blew up... twice.

Calcium carbide, potassium nitrate, sodium nitrate, and water?!?

I’m not sure how many casualties the government is claiming, but, iirc, most humans can’t live through a pressure wave over 5 psi. Those who do will suffer some damage. Those vehicles are compressed to the structural members in the doors, etc.

All moon roofs are broken out.

The tops on those cares were bent down by shockwave.

The top three cars, numbers 2 and 3 have clear evidence of doors with shockwave damage.

Those roofs, are all bent down in the middle. Falling debris would not have hit each one in the dead center middle

This is clearly shock-wave damage, but I couldn’t help but think how much it looked like vandalism too. Only in some ways.
