Massive Gas Refinary explosion
This morning on Puerto Rico (island where i live)
There was a massive explosion of 17 Gas tanks on a gas refinery.
Thankfully noone got killed but it did left some injury's.
People who live near it where saying they felt the massive explosion and woke up frightened. Some houses got big damages and so do cars, i saw a car with all the windows broken and it was like scrunched up. (because of the sonic wave)
Up to now you can still see the big mushroom cloud.
People are saying that it was a terrorist attack and that they saw a plane crash in the Gas refinery. but its still not
confirmed.
There was also a graffiti on a highly transited tunnel that said: "Boom, fire, RIP, Gulf, Soul, ACNF." A second tunnel was reported to have the same message. Officials do not know who or what ACNF is, Deturn said.
It was confirmed that the explosion was bigger than the 911 terrorist attack one.
Here are some images:
This is the location of the Gas Refinery, you can clearly see the tanks.(this is be4 the explosion)
