Explosion in Zalka

I was just told an explosion just took place in jdeideh... cross ur fingers...

Update: Explosion took place near Starbucks Zalka.

Update2: Explosion took place in promenade hotel. 2 injured.

Update 3: New TV reporter says major destruction of at least 2 buildings. No criticcal human injuries. Inspectors have already visited the site.

Update 4: LBC is showing live footage. I still haven't seen any damage. They seem to be concentrating on the crowd more than the explosion itself. They say 5 people have been injured so far., light injuries caused by broken glass. The bomb was placed in centre moussa. I just saw some of the damage.

LBC said it was in a building close to Promenade that belongs to the Central Bank. They are debating whether it was placed inside the building or below the ground. This is what I heard last.

It's like I've been in another world. When did this happen?? I was talking with a friend earlier: "they seem to have forgotten all about explosions, and Downtown is filled with tourists again" I think this is a magical sentence..each time said, there's some news about another bomb..
