Holy crap. That is a HUGE explosion.

I don’t even see that as an explosives cache going up. That is something else.

The condensation (Wilson cloud) from the blast wave is impressive, but it clears quickly and reveals what looks like an ordinary depot explosion.

It must be a humid day.

Lots of secondary pops before the big one. It looked like small arms ammo burning off. The Boom!

Looks like two explosions from totally different sources. My guess:

(1) Hezbollah explosives depot -- explosion followed by fire
(2) Heat/fracture triggered underwater gas main mega-explosion, as indicated by massive water vapor cloud.

No, I do. A buried ammunition bunker = a confined explosion. Confinement enhances the blast yield.
