Original Note:
Even a layperson can see that the Beirut explosion of 4 August 2020 depicted here is of a huge amount of explosive. In fact it was a shipload of nitrogen based explosive. A Zircon only contains ~300kg of HE. https://www.theguardian.com/world/2023/aug/03/port-of-beirut-explosion-aftermath-scars-on-already-broken-lebanon https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/2020_Beirut_explosion
