Not nuclear, please - fireworks. Don’t help spread rumor.

More fake news originates on FR than anywhere else.

Exactly. If it was nuclear there wouldn’t be any cell phone videos to watch. Unless it was a live stream, then you’d have something right up to the moment.

fireworks.

I agree, it was not nuclear, but likely military ordinance. Lebanon is awash in missiles stored in residential areas, basically daring the Israelis to take them out.

My guess is that this was a work-accident. Second most likely hypothesis, Mossad operation.

Fire works! Don’t make me laugh. That was military grade high explosives. Look how fast the shock wave travels. Fireworks are around 1200 fps, high explosives is 2300 to 5000 fps.

Absolutely ZERO chance that is fire works.

Modern humans do not put “fire works” factories down town in cities. Muslims do put ammo dumps.

When was the last time we had images of Lebanese celebrating with fireworks?

Most likely a weapons assembly plant.

You can see small cook-offs but nothing shooting out of the first fire like a bottle rockets or mortars.

Just my take.
