And much much more.
i don't know that it's immediately obvious to people in the west just how widespread the damage from yesterday was, so i've illustrated the same situation as though it took place in the city of london or manhattan pic.twitter.com/dWc1s1k9Mf

Inbound into Lebanon is the Panamax tanker INCA (9256028), laden with fuel oil to power up the country's electricity grid. She is arriving shortly from Houston, Texas after a three week journey. INCA's ETA is expected to be tonight. #OOTT pic.twitter.com/M2wQj0BvWw

The impact of Beirut explosion on the country's food supply will be devastating. Lebanon imports everything. Country's main wheat silo at the port is gone too.

The explosion at the Port of #Beirut resulted in the absolute destruction of virtually all facilities responsible for the offload and storage of dry bulk cargo.
All warehouses within 1km of the blast are total losses, along with any and all product stored within. pic.twitter.com/c020MzIvtp

The amount of broken glass visible from overhead satellite above #Beirut is insane.
Going to see a significant amount of eye injuries reported as new information is released from local hospitals. pic.twitter.com/CygHd9z8hC
