How did the ammonium nitrate end up in the port? In October 2013, a Moldovan-flagged ship called MV Rhosus set off from Batumi, Georgia carrying 2,750 tons of ammonium nitrate - a chemical used in fertilizer - on board. The ship was owned by Russian businessman Igor Grechushkin and was destined for Mozambique.
The Russians again; this man lives in Cyprus, but the grapevine says he does not have a Cypriot passport, but his wife does.
He should make reparation to the Lebanese instead we all pay for it AGAIN

tomcatty: yeh 3000 tons of explosive is quite distracting if you're near it
getting explosive from manure is possible, yet not something you can perform in your kitchen ammonium nitrat needs a third component to cause a chain reaction As i said, fertilizer explosion and all got caught on , i think 4 cameras non movable and from the drone- put on your thinking cap

The destination was Mozambique, but Lebanon confiscated it and left it there for over 6 years. If it wasn't exploded, it might have been there for 100 more years maybe. So it was their own fault. It's easy to acuse the Russians, and they are no saints, but in this case Russia has made no mistake. Lebanon did. If Mozambique tried to get the stuff from Lebanon, I don't know.

From my man in Cairo.
CAIRO—The countdown to catastrophe in Beirut started six years ago when a troubled, Russian-leased cargo ship made an unscheduled stop at the city’s port.
The ship was trailed by debts, crewed by disgruntled sailors and dogged by a small hole in its hull that meant water had to be constantly pumped out. And it carried a volatile cargo: more than 2,000 tons of ammonium nitrate, a combustible material used to make fertilizers — and bombs — that was destined for Mozambique.
The ship, the Rhosus, never made it. Embroiled in a financial and diplomatic dispute, it was abandoned by the Russian businessman who had leased it. And the ammonium nitrate was transferred to a dockside warehouse in Beirut, where it would languish for years, until Tuesday, when Lebanese officials said it exploded, sending a shock wave that killed more than 130 people and wounded another 5,000.
