Here's a short movie from BBC News:

More movies will probably follow soon.

Reminds me of the "rumours" around the accident in Enschede, Netherlands. The words "not again" came to mind after reading several related newspaper articles with text like

"Police said fireworks stored in a shipping container exploded, spreading flames and explosions across the site, and it appeared as if other containers had been opened."

and

""I can tell you there were no people legitimately on the site when the explosion occurred," police superintendent Greg Martin told Australian Broadcasting Corporation radio.

He did not rule out the possibility that an unauthorised person had broken into the factory and been caught in the blast."

Update:
Seems there is indication in the investigation that maybe a robery wend wrong. Indication of some jammed open containers are a clue to the probably robery attempt.
