Eight more grain silos collapse at Beirut's port after succumbing to damage from the devastating 2020 explosion -- the third major collapse in a month. A cloud of dust rose over the port after the collapse, which brought down the last of the northern block of silos that was more heavily damaged in the blast, and where a fire had been burning since July.

New parts of grain silos damaged by the 2020 Beirut port explosion collapse, the third such incident at the dockside harbour this month. The towers that came crumbling down were among the last remaining chunks of the structure's northern bloc which sustained the most damage during the explosion. Experts had been warning for days that the silos could collapse imminently. IMAGES
