Hmmm we hope there is not more to this tipper story because From eye withness report there seem to be something more sinister to this as the writer attached put it that a truck outmaneuvered a military cordon and caused the explosion

So sad. May the dead live on in good memories in the living and may those that grieve the dead find comfort in these memories and what is left of life.
I'm yet to read an official statement on the accident. These lives lost must be accounted for.
