Updates on Beirut explosion; Deaf men describe impact
The explosion in Beirut, Lebanon has killed at least 100 people. It is very possible that the explosion was caused by 2,750 tons of a chemical called ammonium nitrate that was stored at a warehouse for several years. The Lebanese government said there would be an investigation. President Donald Trump said it could have been a bomb attack.
There was a vlog by two Deaf Lebanese men who explained their experience with the explosion that was widely shared.
