  1. Secondary explosions of rockets stored in underground tunnels

  2. No munitions, but cookoff of either fuel or ammunition.

  4. Currently on the front lines and we felt that one! Nice to see a video of it

  6. Ask the those in Lebanon, the largest explosion they experienced was the one perpetrated on themselves in 2020.

  8. Hezbollah has way more munitions than hamas with none of the blockade issues… Those boys need to tread lightly out there

  11. That is a beautiful sunset!

    (Dude, that’s an explosion in Lebanon.)

    ….. I stand by my statement.

  12. If it is Lebanon, I guess a warehouse full of fertilizers, they are very specialized in this kind of explosion.

    Too soon ?

  13. Jewish Space Lasers. I can’t believe no-one thought of that yet, it’s so obvious.

  14. Munitions can burn , more slowly than one blast and very hot to thr point fuels, metals and other things feed the fires. Their almost impossible to out out once they burning.

  18. It’s possible that it’s rocket propellant or oxidizing agents cooking off underground. They would produce a kind of fire-fountain effect out of any tunnel entrance nearby…

  20. Only the continual burning of countless civilian bodies can cause such a fireball Hezbollah officials claim.

  22. My bet is on a high octane (relatively) fuel. We don’t see the initial which makes it harder, but a I’m assuming high octane fuel due to the fire seemingly having minimal shaping from escaping a compressed area (underground fuel/stuff would have a more column like appearance).

    So avgas, traditional gasoline, something like that in bulk above ground storage would be my guess.
    I’m also assuming Lebanon is not sitting on a stockpile of incendiary devices which could have easily caused similar results.

  23. The technical term is “massive fucking explosion”
