PTSD to Lebanese population: And we meet again.
Army: A fire broke out in a warehouse of oils and tires in the free market in the port of Beirut, and operations to extinguish the fire have begun, and army helicopters will participate in extinguishing it.

Military source for LBCI:
- Citizens are required to move away from the vicinity of the port and clear the roads in its vicinity, and work is being done to evacuate the port due to the intensification of the fire.
- Do not operate any drone over the port and its surroundings because army helicopters will take part in putting out the fire.

Note: This excludes IDF drones and jets.
The intensity of the fire greatly decreased. Currently two warehouses are affected.

Material damage is expected as the second warehouse included newly arrived shipments of products worth hundreds of thousands of dollars.
