Washington:

President Donald Trump said on Tuesday that US generals had told him that the powerful explosions that rocked Beirut appeared to have been caused by “some bomb”.

“It looks like a terrible attack,” Trump told reporters at the White House.

“It would appear that this is based on the explosion,” Trump said. “I have met our generals and they think it was.

“It wasn’t some sort of manufacturing explosion type event,” he said.

“It looks like they think – they would know better than I do – but they seem to think it was an attack.

“It was some bomb.”

Two huge explosions rocked the port of Beirut on Tuesday, killing at least 73 people and injuring thousands.

Lebanese Prime Minister Hassan Diab said about 2,750 tons of ammonium nitrate had been stored in the warehouse in the port of Beirut which exploded.
