Apparently they brought some guys to weld the door of the warehouse so that the Ammonium Nitrate is not stolen!!!! That is what started the fire.



From the power of the blast, these guys must have been vaporized. I don't think they will find some bodies.

If indeed that photo is site before the blast.
Then zero safety measures were in place.
Look, they don't have any safety protective equipment at that worksite. There are no warning signs. Clearly safety awareness is lacking in that photo.

A similar disaster that happened in Tianjin, China on August 12,2015 resulted in swift severe punishment for those found culpable.

Quote:
On 8 November 2016, various courts in China handed jail sentences to 49 government officials and warehouse executives and staff for their roles in circumventing the safety rules that led to the disaster. Yu Xuewei, the Chairman of Ruihai Logistics, was sentenced to death with a two-year reprieve.

Who took this photo and how was he and/ or his camera able to survive the blast?
Life is short. Live passionately.

According to some news outlets that warehouse photo is legit.




The name on those sacks may be a rip off of another brand manufactured by a mining explosives company.

One of the men has a facemask on his chin.

The windows, roof and doors match the photos of the burning warehouse.
