Fire at complex containing dangerous materials in Israel's Haifa

[An Nahar] Israeli firefighters were on Sunday battling to control a huge blaze in the northern city of Haifa after a number of buildings containing hazardous materials caught fire overnight in an industrial and logistics complex, Israeli media reports said.

Explosions were heard, apparently as the flames detonated the contents of the building. Videos posted to social media showed flames engulfing the structures.

It was unclear what had been stored in the buildings, with some of the earth-shattering kabooms appearing to produce light-colored flames.

No casualties were reported in the fire, but three people were rescued from nearby homes.

Firefighters were working to prevent the flames from spreading to nearby structures.

Haifa is a key location for Israeli industry, with a number of plants and processing centers linked to the oil and chemical industries.

Leb
Leb

...an Iranian colony situated on the eastern Mediterranean, conveniently adjacent to Israel. Formerly inhabited by hardy Phoenecian traders, its official language is now Arabic, with the usual unpleasant side effects. The Leb civil war, between 1975 and 1990, lasted a little over 145 years and produced 120,000 fatalities. The average length of a ceasefire was measured in seconds. The Lebs maintain a precarious sectarian balance among Shiites, Sunnis, and about a dozeen flavors of Christians. It is the home of Hezbollah, which periodically starts a war with the Zionist Entity, gets Beirut pounded to rubble, and then declares victory and has a parade. The Lebs have the curious habit of periodically murdering their heads of state or prime ministers...
’s Hezbollah had in the past threatened to target chemical facilities in the city in the event of a future war.
