I saw some footage on social media and it looked like a nuclear bomb going off 😳, seen reports it might be an explosion at a fireworks factory? It looks awful and I hope its not killed many cos unfortunately something that size has got to have 😢

I saw the film of it actually going off. There appeared to be some kind of smoke before it went off but was so shocked at the size of it. Literally see the blast field coming towards you.

Totally shocked. Seemed so sudden and people didn't stand a chance. Truly horrific!

I read that it was a firework factory (on one video you can see fireworks) that ignited silos
Awful footage of the devastation |

That is the largest explosion I have ever seen. I think there must have been a fire well before the explosion and hopefully most people got evacuated. If that is just fireworks by god they must have had some gunpowder there. Horrendous, absolutely horrendous.

That is exactly what I thought it looked like when I first saw it
Hope there are not as many fatalities as it looks on the footage
