An explosion aboard a ship in Dubai’s commercial port of Jebel Ali shook the
Middle Eastern city on Wednesday night causing fears among residents of a
terrorist attack or a situation similar to the blast that leveled Beirut’s
port in 2020. Government officials moved quickly to downplay the explosion
saying in was a “normal accident” with flammable materials in a container
loaded aboard a ship either at the dock or approaching the dock.
Shortly before midnight local time, residents across the city reported
hearing a loud explosion and a fireball rising from a ship near the port
complex. Reports say that the shockwave rattled buildings and windows up to
15 miles away from the port.
Early reports suggested that a tanker in the anchorage had exploded, raising
fears of a missile or mine. Follow-up reports seem to qualify that it was a
container loaded aboard a ship that was either entering the port or at the
dock at the time of the explosion. The official Dubai Media Office is
reporting that it was a container loaded on a ship and that there were no
initial reports of injuries. “Dubai Civil Defense teams are currently
dealing with a fire caused by the explosion of a container on board a ship in
Jebel Ali Port,” the DMO posted on social media followed by statements that
the fire was out.
In later reports on social media, the DMO said that precautions and an
investigation were underway, but that it believed the explosion happened
aboard a smaller feeder vessel carrying approximately 130 containers into the
port. They said there were still no reports of injuries and that they were
now working to cool the area to ensure that no additional fires erupted.
Jebel Ali Port authorities Tweeted, “We are taking all necessary measures to
ensure the normal movement of ships in the port continues without any
disruption.”
Despite the statements to reassured everyone that the situation was under
control, and it was a normal accident, videos posted to social media showed
the port littered with debris after the explosion.
The Jebel Ali port, operated by DP World, is one of the largest in the world
and the largest in the Middle East. It has four container terminals serving
as a transshipping point for cargos traveling across the Middle East. The
port handles more than 14 million TEU annually.
