"They seem to think it was an attack -- a bomb of some kind," says @POTUS of US military leaders assessing the Beirut Blast.

Can we just not.... https://t.co/Bn4ym37jIc

"They seem to think it is.."

This is called a childish assumption without any real Intel from the world's top generals.

Joe Biden: Our hearts and prayers are with the people of Lebanon, and the victims of the horrific explosion in Beirut. I urge both the Trump Administration and international community to immediately mobilize assistance to the thousands injured in the blast.

This does not look healthy at all.

I'm trying to verify this image that is currently being circulated. https://t.co/T89DkNHWwS

The level of air pollution is back to normal. https://t.co/pLbRYaFVra

US State Department says that the US is awaiting results from the Lebanese gov't investigation into the Beirut Port incident.

It seems Trump didn't get the memo yet.

If you know anyone that is missing call 1214, the ministry of health is taking names and contacting hospitals.

- Prime Minister of the Netherlands states that 5 employees from the Netherlands Embassy were injured following the blast.

He also adds that the country stands in solidarity with the Lebanese people.

After more confirmation, this actually seems to be the depo with the confiscated Nitrate. https://t.co/DHRrbCMGDm

Many similar videos all over Beirut. https://t.co/DRKLOJIlY6

🔁 RT @asadabukhalil: This hashtag has been trending in Lebanon all day; it calls for the execution of the head of the port authority/customs. If he has any sense of decency—and he does not seem to have any—he would immediately resign and surrender to the police.

- Premises of the Finnish mission in Beirut 2 km away from blast completely destroyed. Embassy confirms none were injuried.

There is now huge talk in Lebanon that, yes the warehouse had 2,750 on paper but this explosion is smaller than a 2,750 ton of nitarte explosion.

Hinting some were stolen over the years, and what exploded was less. It is important to note that the sea absorbed 1/3 at Least of it

3 U.S. Defense Department officials tell CNN that as of Tuesday night there is no indication they’ve seen that the massive explosions that rocked Beirut was an attack, as President Trump indicated during a question and answer session with reporters at the White House.

The problem is that the workers in the port didn't know there was nitrate there ...nor did the Firefighters.

All videos show them walking near the warehouse with fireworks as if it was a simple fire, they didn't expect that explosion. https://t.co/3dsH7mXbBj

Last update for today.

Another angle of the explosion. https://t.co/H1G3vDoAEi

A similar incident with almost the same amount of nitrate. Comparing the results of the two is crucial to understand what happened today and is it was actually 2,750 tons. https://t.co/gPRRJ2vPAg
