Massive explosions Tuesday evening in Lebanon's capital.

More than 70 people are dead and 3,000 are wounded after two explosions shook the city of Beirut, Lebanon. The death toll has been rising by the hour, as investigators try to determine the cause. Chris Livesay reports.


At least 78 people were killed in a massive explosion that shook the Lebanese capital, Beirut, on Tuesday evening, Lebanon's health minister told Reuters.
The blast appears to have been centered on the city's port area.
Lebanon state-run NNA news reported that a major fire broke out near Beirut port and firefighting teams rushed to the scene and worked to put out the fire.

Seems the Port where the fire broke out was also used as a storage facility and held high explosives and or fireworks which were previously seized by the Lebonaon government some time ago, or it could have been a fireworks factory.
The details are still unclear.
