I didn’t know that medical equipment would fly like rockets if hit by bomb.

[eenkjet]

Why is a rocket flying out of the crater? This is residential area.

[Theforester]

Clearly shows that building stored weapons and rockets. The secondary explosions are from the rockets.

[bestestusername]

That has hit missile storage you can see the secondary explosions and stored rockets that have been set off

[stephenbachman]

All those flying flare looking things is secondary rockets an ammunition going off. So it was a confirmation of a ammo dump being struck

[MountainMan-sjhl]

Look at all that humanitarian aid explode!

[VeronicaSherr]

that baguette got ignited and flew out like a rocket, poor kitchen workers

[FirstyPaul]

It must have been a weapon storage facility with all those secondary explosions

[CeeDEE-lb]

"And the bombs bursting in air...."

In the mid-20th century, Lebanon was one of the wealthiest and most prosperous countries in the Middle East. Its capital, Beirut, was once known as the Paris of the Middle East. It was the only state in the Middle East where Christianity was dominant, at one point making up over 60% of the population.

It is now 70% Muslim.

Massive secondaries indicate this was a munitions storage facility. Likely lots of rockets.

[paulcraven]

This is what happens when you only read one book.

[TranCeFORMR]

Even the ammo is return to sender mode

[aloycekiwia]

Secondary explosions, it's probably weapons storage.
You don't have to be a Genius.!

[nattan]

secretly was an undercover black market fireworks storage facility .

[Sonic-txvi]

So this is what the humanitarian aid in the hospital is made of... This is how many missiles and ammunition there were under the hospital and residential buildings...

As a proud Israeli I'd like to thank Sky News Australia for covering the situation as it is, and understanding that Israel is fighting the bad guys, and not turning the reality upside down like some other networks that try to victimize the terrorists.

[heatherclifton]

Watching news organizations report on weapons depots blowing up and trying to pretend it isn't a weapons depot blowing up is hilarious.

[wickedprotos]

@00:48 That one rocket from the dump looked like it ignited, went active, and re-homed-in on the heat of the explosion.

[raiconlan]

clearly secondary explosions so Hezbollah rockets not Israeli
