    Makes you ask the question.
    Why store so much explosive material in a built up area? Plenty open spaces available.

    A terrible tragedy.

    We had a similar catastrophe in the city I work in and live close by, where a bunker filled with fireworks exploded and leveled several city blocks some 10 years ago. No one thinks it will be possible and still it cán happen.
