World's Tallest Building Lights Up To Pay Tribute To Victims Of Beirut Bombing by vegafbs(op):
Burj Khalifa, the world’s tallest building has been lit up in the colours of the Lebanese flag to pay tribute to those dead and those injured in Beirut bombing.

According to a Twitter user, @EkeVanVictor, the Great Pyramid of Giza was also light up in honour of the victims. It’s indeed a black Tuesday for the good people of Beirut in this tough time.

It’s so sad and heartbreaking to see how so many lives and properties have been destroyed in Beirut. The world should send their thoughts and prayers to the affected families Beirut bombing.

The two massive explosions that shook Beirut on Tuesday, killed nearly 50 people, while over 2, 500 have been reportedly injured strewing devastation across multiple neighborhoods and shattering windows for miles around.

According to the Health minister, Hamad Hassan while commenting on the Beirut bombing, as many as 50 may have been killed and over 2,000 injured. However, Reuters put the toll at least 30 dead.

It shall never be well with those supporting terrorism all in the name of repentance. Once a terrorist always a terrorist. They're heartless and inhumane.

Only 50 dead and they are lighting up a building? BH kills about 100 on a daily in Nigeria including soldiers and it doesn't even get a mention on any of the news tabloids.

That's how useless our country has become in the scheme of things.

Poor us. No one cares.

Just 50 and the whole world took notice and stood still!

They can't hold a candle to our bloodthirsty bokites who can slaughter up to a 100 on a good day....easy! 50 would be a slow day for them! sad

It wasn't a bomb, it was an explosion caused by explosive materials.

You are right but sodium nitrate is the main components of what all those rag tag militia uses in making their bombs and with the prevalence of hesbollah in that region we cann not rule out the intent to use such materials for terrorism

I haven't been online of late to know what materials was present in the warehouse but this is just too big for terrorist to handle even if they did blow somewhere it wasn't with intent of such damage.
By now one or two groups would have claimed responsibility
