Additional footage by @architect_designss captures chaotic scenes at Beirut Souks, an upscale shopping area, and @ahmadtawil12 documents shattered glass on the floor of the devastated Phocus Gym in Beirut's Achrafieh neighborhood.

The blast killed at least 100 people and more than 4,000 are injured.
