But now there are conflicting reports including a report at Al-Hadeth that claims the massive explosion was a Hezbollah warehouse in Beirut for missiles from Iran.
Al-Hadeth from Jordan reported (translated):
Security sources said two explosions occurred in Beirut, leaving one wounded. The Lebanese Minister of Health also confirmed that a large number of people were injured.
The site of the accident was reportedly inside the Port of Beirut, specifically Ward 12, a warehouse for explosives.
The massive explosion damaged the glass of buildings in most parts of Beirut, and injured hundreds of people.
It looked like the mother of all bombs.
