Beirut, Aug 4 (UNI) Dozens were feared dead as a massive explosion hit the Lebanese capital here on Tuesday.
The impact of explosions was so huge that buildings all over Beirut were shaken up and left glasses shattered in most areas, according to the local TV channel.

A businessman named Merhi Abou Merhi has called on the authorities to send teams and save people in his boat that was damaged in the explosions.

It is still not clear whether it was an attack or a regular explosion caused by the chemicals stored at the Port of Beirut.

The Lebanese Red Cross and Civil Defense teams rushed to the area to transfer the injured to hospitals while dozens are believed to be still under the rubble.

Hospitals urged people to donate blood in an attempt to save the injured in explosions.
