Scary video to watch..massive explosion one after another. Probably started from a warehouse.

I asked a Lebanese friend what he thought... he said his first guess was massive incompetence and just possibly some nefarious intention coupled with massive incompetence. He immediately dismissed it as an outright state actor attack (i.e. not Israel).

And that's 2700 tonne of ammonium nitrate kept in the warehouses for 6 years...

What were they thinking..

I guess they had plans to export it to Israel

To give some context, the Oklahoma bombing used 2.5 tonnes
