Almens 100 mòrts, mas benlèu mai, e mai de 4000 nafrats a causa de grandas explosions dins la zòna del pòrt de Beirot. Un magazin a espetat aqueste dimars de ser, en causant la destruccion de fòrça edificis de la vila e delà. Qualques minutas puèi, i a agut una segonda explosion. L’onda de chòc s’es ausida sus tota la capitala e de qualques quilomètres estant.  Sus Twitter se ditz qu'an entendut l'explosion a Chipre. Lo president del país a dich que las explosions las an causadas 2700 tonas de nitrat d'amòni qu'èran demoradas sièis ans dins un magazin sens mesuras de seguretat.
 
Reuters a publicat un testimoniatge esglasiant: “Ai vist una bòla de fuòc e de fum que virava sus Beirot. Lo mond cridavan, corrián e sagnavan. Los balcons an volat de las bastissas estant. Las vitras dels immòbles se son brigalhadas e son tombadas per carrièras”.
 
Qualques minutas après las explosions, la cadena de television LBC raportava que de nombrosas ambulàncias transportavan de desenas de nafrats. Lo Ministèri de la Santat libanés a ordenat als espitals qu’aculhiscan totes los nafrats que las autoritats ministerials n’assumiràn los còstes medicals.

This is #Beirut. This is how our hearts look like. Beirut is us, & we’re done here. It’s all over. Hope warlords & world powers feel better now. People died. People are injured. People lost everything. Port is destroyed. Whatever was left to feed or fuel us might as well be gone pic.twitter.com/2WNNi8nwv1

A lot of reports that the explosion just now in #Beirut#Lebanon, was from fireworks depot. My initial thoughts, based on nature of explosion, past intelligence and secondary blast, is entirely possible this was weapons (probably Hezbollah) storage facility.
