Pakistani celebrities are sharing messages of love with the people of Beirut

Another day, another saddening news. 2020 is really making its presence felt. The world witnessed a horrific explosion in Beirut, Lebanon. A warehouse containing what the local authorities are saying was a large amount of sodium nitrate that was confiscated a year ago, blew up suddenly, sending giant seismic waves to the entire city.

The explosion has taken  70 lives so far and injured around 2700. Authorities are expecting more casualties because people are stuck under the rubble. The blast destroyed buildings and shattered the windows. Lebanese sources report that almost 2700 tons of ammonium nitrate exploded at the Beirut Port.
