Expert warns Israel might suffer nitrate blast like Beirut
Israel might suffer from a catastrophic blast Like the Beirut port explosion, an expert in hazardous materials has warned.
"Israel has an acute problem of ammonium nitrate factories located next to residential areas," Danny Kronenberg said, in remarks published Sunday in the Israeli newspaper, Haaretz.
The report claimed that citizens don't know the locations of the ammonium nitrate due to national security concerns and censorship.
"The enormous blast is a matter of time," Kronenberg assumed.
