The northern part of grain silos at Beirut port has collapsed, Lebanon's National News Agency (NNA) reported Tuesday. 

There were no immediate reports of injuries.

A massive explosion, one of the most powerful non-nuclear blasts on record, in August 2020 had damaged the silos and killed more than 215 people. 

A fire had been smoldering in the silos for several weeks which officials said was the result of summer heat igniting fermenting grains that have been left rotting inside since the explosion.

Last month, Lebanese officials had already warned that part of the silos could collapse after the northern portion began tilting fast.
