PORT BLAST
Newhaven fire – Sussex port ‘explosion’ sparks huge blaze as black smoke seen for miles around
No video of this explosion, but they're describing it as a "mammoth explosion."

A 'MAMMOTH explosion' at a Sussex port has sparked a huge blaze - as witnesses miles away from the fire report sightings of plumes of dark smoke.
Firefighters rushed to reports of an inferno at a warehouse in Newhaven, East Sussex at 9.30am today.
No video of the explosion but there are pictures in the article. The place is currently on fire.
I should have been compiling a list of all the different warehouses and banks that have either blown up or caught fire the last few days. There's been several of them.

There are pallets neatly stacked less than 10 feet from the building. This is a fire, not a "Huge Explosion"
Sensationalism.

From the article.

District councillor Jay Brewerton said: "Mammoth explosion and fire at Newhaven Industrial Estate."
I do agree though that the pallets stacked there would suggest that maybe "mammoth" was a bad word to describe the blast.

The media can’t help by lie and sensationalize at this point. They have went so off the track they don’t realize words have meaning and they fail to properly deploy them because they chase clicks.
Odd though all these ports catching fire. Snack bars tend to be flammable

Very odd, I'd say. This stuff has been happening pretty steady for several days now.

Part and parcel of having a port I suppose.

Especially when you're using the ports to run old Russian firearms from Ukraine to Hezbollah and other terrorist organizations around the wold.
