00:00In Beirut.
00:07We are giving you live news.
00:10What is this noise?
00:12Come in, come in, come in.
00:14Come in, come in.
00:16Come in, mom.
00:18Please, mom.
00:20Come in, please.
00:22Please, come in.
00:24Please, please.
00:26Oh my God.
00:28Oh my God.
00:42These were the shocking moments when a catastrophic blast tore through the heart of Lebanon's capital, Beirut.
00:53The cause, incompetence at the very top.
00:58The whole political reigning elite, they allowed this to happen.
01:04Whether it's by pure negligence or if it was evil.
01:10In both cases, they are completely guilty.
01:14It's too much.
01:16It became normal to see people in this part of the world suffering.
01:22It's not okay.
01:24The pain and grief are immense.
01:27I just remember I was just screaming, my baby, my baby, help my baby.
01:35Everything is really destroyed.
01:37The fabric of our generation and our time is really destroyed.
01:42It's really gone.
01:45As the ABC's Middle East correspondent, Beirut was my city too.
01:50The blast wrecked my neighbourhood, injured my friends and stole hope from those who'd already endured so much.
