Lebanon’s Ain Qana mysterious explosion reveals Hezbollah using homes as arms depots

  In the afternoon of Tuesday, September 22 a massive explosion took place in the town of Ain Qana in southern Lebanon, at a house being used as a Hezbollah arms store. Residents of the town, which lies around 50 km south of Beirut in an area with strong ties to the militant group, were the first to raise concerns that the building was being used by Hezbollah to store weapons. Then a security source told Reuters: “The explosion occurred as a result of a technical error in one of the party’s weapons warehouses.” The sheer scale of the blast and the amount of billowing black smoke at first led many to assume it had been a gas station explosion. Video footage posted on social media showed the destruction of neighboring houses and the burnt-out surrounding land. Hezbollah operatives surrounded the area and blocked both passersby and journalists from approaching the scene.

Hezbollah indirectly responsible for the bombing in Beirut.

A series of massive explosions rocked Beirut's port on Tuesday – a mushroom cloud rising above the widespread destruction that claimed the lives of at least 100 people and wounded thousands more in the Lebanese capital.

"There is a possibility that fireworks, petrol and weapons were stored together," another intelligence source noted. "Officially, the blast happened at the fireworks and petrol warehouse." The explosion was caused by ammunition nitrate, Iran a is large producer of this commodity. Iran ammonium nitrate production was at level of 68,428 tonnes in 2016. T...

Ammonium nitrate didn’t belong to Hezbollah, but they knew about its dangers

  Beirut is still reeling from the August 4 explosion at its seaport—an event that’s being described as one of the largest ever non-nuclear explosions in the world and the worst disaster in Lebanon’s tragically violent history. As the Lebanese capital tends to its wounds, officials are investigating and promising to hold those responsible accountable. But citizens are understandably loathe to trust the same ruling clique whose incompetence and negligence caused this tragedy. Trending Arabic hashtags like #Prepare_the_Gallows capture their anger, which is generally directed towards Lebanese officialdom rather than just a single party or group. Some, however, are pointing their accusatory finger squarely at the militant group Hezbollah . Despite indications that the Party of God may not have been directly responsible for the incident, the group should not escape scrutiny. Suspicions that the stash of 2,750 tons of ammonium nitrate belonged to Hezbollah aren’t ent...
