    Was that a fa bomb?
    "And how we burned in the camps later thinking, what would things have been like, if every security operative, when he went out at night to make an arrest, had been uncertain, whether he would return alive and had to say good-bye to his family?"

    it looked like maybe chemical storage at the port. Could be fertilizer ?? The video made it seem like there was a fire before the big boom.

    It made one hell of a Wilson cloud. Looked like HE to me. A FA bomb needs to disperse the fuel into the air at the optimal mixture, then ignite it. I doubt it was FA. It looked like some HE cooked off and set off the rest.

    I don't know fertilizer is no joke. If it was a port they could have had an awful lot of it stored.

    Report I heard was it was initially a fire in a fireworks factory. Looks like that became the fuse for something obviously bitter.
