Explosion Rocked Dubai Biggest Port In Jebel Ali. by dignity33: 5:55am On Jul 08, 2021
The explosion rocked Dubai on Wednesday night after fire ripped through a container ship at the port of Jebel Ali, the biggest port in the Middle East.

Witnesses reported shaking buildings across the city. Residents of neighborhoods as far away as 25 kilometers (15 miles) felt the blast around 11:45 p.m.

Residents reported the blast shook windows in the city, and a fireball could be seen in the night skyline.

Authorities said: "A fire has been reported to have broken out in a container within a ship anchored in Jebel Ali Port. A Dubai Civil Defense team is working to put out the blaze," Dubai Media Office said in a tweet on their official account.

The also officials said there were no immediate reports of casualties and that the damage caused by the explosion to the port and surrounding cargo was not immediately clear.

The Jebel Ali port in Dubai is one of the largest in the world and the largest in the Middle East. It serves cargo from the Indian subcontinent, Africa and Asia.
