The World: Donald Trump attributes Beirut explosion to a bomb attack

Last updated on September 11th, 2021 at 02:36 pm

American President Donald Trump on Tuesday forged a massive explosion in Beirut as a feasible bomb attack.

His announcement contradicted the statements by means of Lebanese leaders that it was in all likelihood triggered by using distinctly explosive cloth that had been saved at warehouses in the capital for years.

The United States stands geared up to aid Lebanon,” Trump stated at a White House briefing of Tuesday’s explosion, which killed at least seventy eight human beings and injured thousands. “It appears like a horrible attack.”

When asked later about his depiction of the explosion, Trump stated that he had met with some U.S. generals who sense the blast was once not “some form of a manufacturing explosion type of event.”

He instructed newshounds that in accordance to these unnamed generals “they appear to suppose it used to be an attack. It was once a bomb of some kind.”

Lebanon’s President Michel Aoun said that 2,750 tonnes of ammonium nitrate had been saved for six years at the port without safety measures and said it used to be “unacceptable”.

Prime Minister Hassan Diab stated in a televised address to the nation there would be accountability for the deadly blast at the “dangerous warehouse”.

Over seventy eight people have died in the explosion, with lots also injured.
