A worker at a factory more than three miles away from the blast told CNN that they felt a “strong gust” of wind.

“A strong gust of airflow scared me so much that I didn’t dare leave my office,” the worker said. “The doors and windows in my factory were damaged … The airflow rushed in through the window, and if I had been a bit closer, it might have thrown me against the wall.”
