Has this only just happened? That was a HUGE explosion and there appears to be a residential tower right next door.

Yikes that looks big. Hopefully there isn't too much loss of life and hopefully it was some kind of accident and not something more.

That seems like a massive explosion. I really hope there is not a large loss of life :O
