Post the ear numbing, apocalyptic blast in Lebanon’s capital Beirut, the silo containing the city’s grain was entirely damaged in the blast.

The economy minister of Lebanon was quoted saying that the city while reeling under political crisis was also facing a major economic crises. The explosion has left with the reserves of grains for less than a month.

The explosion was the most powerful ever to rip through Beirut, leaving the port district a wreck of mangled masonry and disabling the main entry port for imports to feed a nation of more than 6 million people.

The Beirut silo was capable of holding 120,000 tonnes of grain, said Ahmed Tamer, the director of the port of Tripoli, Lebanon’s second-biggest city.

The port in Tripoli, Lebanon’s second-biggest port, is not equipped with grain storage facilities but wheat could be transferred to warehouses 2 km (about one mile) away, he said.

President Aoun declared three days of mourning which started on Wednesday. Opening an emergency cabinet meeting, he said: “No words can describe the horror that has hit Beirut last night, turning it into a disaster-stricken city”.

Jakarta: When you have the world’s all-time during this COVID pandemic so why the fear of wasting time? This theme was well presented by a YouTuber from Indonesia who shared a video of himself sitting and doing nothing but staring into the camera for over two hours.

The video titled ‘2 JAM nggak ngapa-ngapain’ translated into English as ‘2 hours of doing nothing’ was posted by the YouTuber Muhammad Didit.

This “weirdly innovative” content though might seem boring on hearing but ecstatic netizens were quick in bombarding him with funniest of comments.

The YouTuber said that he was inspired to record the video after many of his viewers requested him to post content that educated youth. “2 HOURS of doing nothing, yes that is the title of my video this time,” Didit wrote.

Quite an inspiration we might say as it is not that easy to sit for 2 hours long, staring at the camera, and doing absolutely nothing.

In the description of the video, he said, “Ok, maybe I should share a little bit why this video was made. It all started from the Indonesian society urging me lately to create content that educates the youth – finally with a heavy heart and reluctantly, I did. BOOM, thus the creation of this video but if we were to talk about its benefits, it all depends on you the viewers to filter and that is my only advice to all of you and hope that you will be entertained and benefit from this video.”
