The main story in the news for the last half day or so. There's been some nightmarish footage coming out. A Richter/Tactical Nuclear sized explosion. At least 50 dead so far. 700 injured. Wouldn't be surprised if that figure got a little higher. Explosions were apparently in a industrial area so perhaps not.
Here's a video from liveleak (comments section not really known for their sensitivity, so a head's up on that). No gore but the way the ground directly in front of the camera vaporizes in the split second before it cuts, suggests the poor person holding the camera probably died. RIP. There's a few other videos on there and this one from youtube where most of those are synched up in one.
China unsurprisingly trying to keep a lid on the social media chat about it.
