Replying to @halvorz @eigenrobot
yeah, the second explosion comes from a warehouse next to the silo complex. The bigger issue is that was probably of the cities grain storage, so we can tack 'bread shortage' onto the list of problems

Habib Battah @habib_bAs smoke clears, port of Beirut devastated- added to casualties- billons of $ in imports including national wheat silos-seem to have been eviscerated. Homes shattered for miles. Damages will be massive and could not come at worse time when everyone is broke and hungry#Beirut pic.twitter.com/PlUU5IfM992 replies 0 retweets 2 likes -
