Last explosion I saw like that was a rocket fuel place out west in the desert that went boom.

Some are saying this was a chlorate explosion, possibly related to fireworks.

Whatever it was, it’s either sabotage or a clear breach of safety protocols.

The source of the explosion was a major fire at a warehouse for firecrackers near the port in Beirut, the state-run National News Agency reported.

Their government is calling it a warehouse full of “fireworks” that blew up then possibly igniting a container of “fertilizer” in the secondary boom.

Just... total BS.

Quote from the link. I like the CNN part.

“Many buildings were damaged by the explosion, including the headquarters of former Prime Minister Saad Hariri and CNN’s bureau in the city.”
