Anthony Clery has experienced the terrible explosion in Beirut first-hand. He’s an Irishman who lived very close from the blast with his wife. 

They are both well and safe and Mark Cagney was joined by Anthony himself, who shared his experience, and later spoke to as Michael Stephens, Middle East Researcher and head of the Royal United Services Institute in Qatar and security and defense analyst Declan Power.
