Скачать или смотреть The Ghost Ship That Doomed Beirut

For nearly seven years, a rusting cargo ship sat quietly at the Port of Beirut.
No alarms.
No headlines.
Just 2,750 tons of explosive material nobody wanted and nobody took responsibility for.

This is the story of the MV Rhosus, a “ghost ship” trapped in legal limbo, and the crew forced to live above a floating bomb. It’s a story about how international shipping really works, how responsibility disappears across borders, and how warning after warning can be issued… and still be ignored.

From a failed shortcut through the Suez Canal, to court orders that solved nothing, to a warehouse that should never have existed this documentary traces how rules designed to keep ports safe ended up creating one of the deadliest industrial disasters of the 21st century.

⚠️ Everyone involved saw the danger.
⚠️ Everyone passed the problem along.
⚠️ No one made the final call.

On August 4, 2020, that gap between law and reality detonated.
This isn’t just the story of the Beirut explosion.
