Here you go: https://www.nytimes.com/2020/08/05/world/middleeast/beirut-explosion-ship.html https://www.nytimes.com/2020/08/05/world/middleeast/beirut-e... Except is was not bound for Somalia but for Mozambique. Still Eastern Africa. What do you think they'd use it for? Mining?

What do you think they'd use it for? Terrorism? That's where I call "Speculation!". Fine, my own further Wikipedia sleuthing says you're probably right, but "I read a line on the NY Times" after being prompted for it is no proof: https://www.occrp.org/en/investigations/a-hidden-tycoon-african-explosives-and-a-loan-from-a-notorious-bank-questionable-connections-surround-beirut-explosion-shipment https://www.occrp.org/en/investigations/a-hidden-tycoon-afri...
