BREAKING: Explosion/fireball - Jebel Ali port, Dubai, UAE

So another explosions involving Gas/Oil

Come on?

What’s going on out there? surely too much of a coincidence now?

This port is just opposite the Palm Jabel Ali, you know that very large man made island 🏝 in the shape of a palm tree, looks like a rather large gas/oil depot

Looks like it's a container ship on fire, not a tanker

An explosion sent shockwaves across the commercial hub of the United Arab Emirates late Wednesdays, when a container ship anchored at Dubai's huge port caught fire, according to the emirate's media office.

That's what the reports are.

What's the difference between a tanker and a container ship?

I might be wrong but a tanker is like an oil tanker, a container ship is one of those with hundreds of those shipping containers on them, full of different merchandise etc.

The Evergiven was a container ship, the Exxon Valdez is a tanker.....

Ahhh, thanks for the clarification.

A tanker is licensed to carry stuff that breaks windows 10 miles away when it goes BOOM. A container ship probably not so much.

How does a tanker break Windows 10 ?

Yup for sure

Oh and UAEs economy is melting like an iceberg as it is

The world is on tenterhooks

***Edit***
putnum6's post pretty much the same.


So far no real update, though they are saying it was a combustible materials ontainer that exploded.
The link states that they would not elaborate on the flammable material.

www.timesofisrael.com...

The sheer force and visibility of the explosion suggested the presence of a highly combustible substance. A Dubai authorities told the Saudi-owned Al-Arabiya TV that the crew had evacuated in time and that the fire appeared to have started in one of the containers holding “flammable material,” without elaborating.

Noted this too:

There were no immediate reports of casualties at the port, which is also the busiest port of call for American warships outside the US.

Lot's of booms as of late.🤔

How does it not?

We need to be careful even though there is some funky chit going down, sometimes accidents just happen. 2 years ago this is a blip on the radar, now though every accident we are always looking for that conspiracy angle.

Ports are gonna have accidents and the petroleum industry is gonna have them too.

Lots of things going bang these days.

Secret War

I could tell you all about it but then it wouldn't be a Secret now would it?
