On the night of October 10, a series of powerful explosions occurred at a Hezbollah-owned ammunition depot near the Lebanese city of Saida (Sidon). The explosions were so powerful that they caused secondary detonations of ammunition that lit up the sky above the area, creating a kind of “light show.” Local residents report that flashes of fire and sounds of explosions were visible and audible at a considerable distance from the epicenter of the explosion.

The ammunition depot was allegedly destroyed by an airstrike, but there has been no official confirmation from Lebanese authorities or Hezbollah. Local sources say the explosions could have been caused by drones or missiles, which have been used extensively in the region in recent days. The incident is the latest blow to Hezbollah's infrastructure, which is often targeted by Israel.

Saida, one of the largest cities in southern Lebanon, is known as a Hezbollah stronghold and is home to numerous weapons and ammunition depots. Similar incidents involving explosions at depots have occurred in the region on numerous occasions, causing panic among the local population and exacerbating instability in the country.
