Požar u skladištu eksploziva u luci Bejrut doveo je do snažnih eksplozija, javila je zvanična libanska novinska agencija u utorak.
Kako prenosi agencija Reuters, najmanje deset osoba je smrtno stradalo u eksploziji.
Veliki broj ljudi je ranjen u eksplozijama, dok je bivši premijer Saad al-Hariri, – koji živi u blizini mjesta na kojem su se dogodile eksplozije, neozlijeđen, prve su informacije.
Haririjeva kuća, vladine zgrade i džamija Mohammad al-Amin te još nekoliko okolnih objekata pretrpjeli su značajnu materijalnu štetu.
“Požar je doveo do velikih eksplozija koje su odjeknule u glavnom gradu i predgrađima”, javila je agencija.

At least one large explosion shook central Beirut on Tuesday, damaging buildings across neighborhoods. State media said a fire had broken out in a fireworks storehouse, but it wasn't yet clear what caused such a large blast.
