Def not a nuke-- the light would have been brighter and the heat would have probably burned the cameraman.
That's a big explosion though; reminds me of that big explosion in Tianjin. | ||

Russia has a non-nuke bomb that does that.

blast size could have been a small low yield tactical nuke.
However, if you watch this video, you can clearly see secondary effects from a smaller primary explosion burning off until the huge blast occurs. Somebody (hopefully Israel) hit an arms depot, the small flashes would be something like bullets exploding under heat, until a large store of "high" explosives is ignited by heat from the primary blast or secondary explosions. Just look at that blast wave. People are reporting windows blown at 10 KM away. Local Beirut TV claimed it to be fireworks storage, but truckloads of fireworks won't explode nearly as fast as that secondary. Director of General Security, has told Lebanese media that the most likely source of the blast was a depot at the port, where highly explosive materials had been stored. The director general of customs has been quoted as saying that nitrate was the cause of the huge explosion. Translation: Our terrorist toys got blowed up [You must be logged in to view images.

Anything approaching the scale of a MOAB (massive ordnance air blast, NOT mother of all bombs) detonated at ground level, would produce a blast like that. Get Some! | |||
