Over 40 Syrians Died in Beirut Blast, Embassy Says
MOSCOW (Sputnik) - At least 43 Syrian nationals have died in Tuesday's mammoth blast in Beirut, the Syrian Embassy in Lebanon said Saturday.
"As of now the number of Syrians who died as a result of the explosion has reached 43. This number is not final", the embassy wrote on its Facebook page.
Late on Tuesday, a powerful blast shook port of Beirut, killing over 150 people and injuring some 5,000, as well as causing major damage to a lot of the city's buildings. According to the authorities, the explosion was caused by 2,750 tonnes of confiscated ammonium nitrate stored for years in a port warehouse.
