Imagine something unrelated to Hezbullah and this is happening now. Every single evidence shows this is unrelated to Hezbullah and the origin and destination of the nitarte.

Imagine what would have happened if it was actually for Hezbullah. https://t.co/BtkKeyfhNP

Regarding what Joumblat falsely claimed about nitrate needing explosive caps to explode, this is wrong. He is promoting the disinfo, aiming at investing himself politically.
Particular sets of circumstances can turn ammonium nitrate from a stable compound into an explosive — without any fuel or external catalyst.

The material produces heat as it decomposes, similar to the way a rotting material in a compost heap produces heat. With sufficient quantity, it can generate enough heat to catch fire.

As it burns, ammonium nitrate goes through chemical changes that lead to the production of oxygen, precisely what a fire needs to grow bigger. As temperatures rise up, it will fuse and liberate nitrous oxide (gas), being caught inside. The gas has nowhere to go. Eventually, the gas violently breaks through, heats up and triggers a chain of similar reactions that constitutes the explosion.
- Minister of Health is currently supervising the Iranian mobile hospital. Head of the Iranian team was discussing on TV the aid, including 25 doctors (speaking in Arabic)

- Currently only the Russian and Iranain field hospitals are up and working.
- Both the media Macron didn't cover the extensive damage in Khandaq Al-Ghamiq, Zkak El-Blat, Al-Nuwairi, Al-Basta, Mar Elias and Msaytbeh.

Aside from the extensive damage there, there are couple deaths in Khandaq Al Ghamiq too.
