More than 200 nuclear and biochemical experts from the Chinese military have been sent to the port city of Tianjin after two huge explosions killed at least 50 people.
A team from the International Atomic Energy Agency's Beijing environmental emergency response centre has also gone to the area.

Just this month, Chinese authorities announced plans to embed police censors........... in technology firms.... operating in the country, to prevent the spread of “online rumors,” and allow the government to exert greater control over the Internet in the country.
eveyting fine....... YOU GO NOW!!!
And this- forgot about the EMP effect
At 10 Kt suitcase nuc
Everything within at least 1/3 mile or so would have been fried
And by today lethal radiation zone would be about 20 miles depending in winds
You can take Murdoch out of the tabloids, but can’t take the tabloid out of Murdoch.
Earlier reports were that this was a hazardous chemical storage facility. Perhaps nuclear waste too (the reports didn’t say what sort of chemicals were stored there). So there could have been all sorts of nasty things stored there. When it blew it spread the stuff all over the place...
Looks like helicopter footage to me.
But video stabilization is on any Iphone today
So what is the correct price?
It appears that many more than 14 or so people that was reported were killed.

Exactly right, and those are NOT nuke explosions.
The thing about blowing up Tianjin is you want to blow it up an hour later.
Agreed.
Apparently, the contents of the warehouse might have included something toxic or radiological.
The company’s owners are in custody — I wonder what they have confessed to.
Amazingly few were killed in the West Tx Ammonium nitrate blast.
A friend of mines 70 something year old Auntie survived it with no health effects.
Amazing since the shock wave took the roof off and knocked the house off the foundation.
I saw the pics.
Try again. I’m sorry, but you obviously have no clue concerning the who, what, when, where and how of EMP.
Add to that you have no clue on what the effects of an 1KT Suitcase nuclear weapon would be considering your statement.
Do a little more research...
Frying Chineee Kitteh!!
But a regular explosion containing radioactive materials could still have fallout
This could have been a dirty bomb
Or, it could have been shoddy construction, poor maintenance and lax oversight of the physical plant and the resulting fire and explosion released something that was being shipped.
BTW: People in China I know are telling me the death toll is closer to 500 than the 50 that is being reported.
