The Syrian actor Mutasim Al-Nahar published - via "Al-Qasas" on his Instagram account - the clip recorded by surveillance cameras for the moment he was in a building near the Beirut port bombing, and he wrote "Praise be to God always and forever."
Al-Nahar also responded to dozens of messages from his friends and followers via Instagram who wished him safety after he survived the explosion.
