Not sure this will post any better than what (I think) OP(TB) posted originally.

Additionally, that was a major jolt, and the guys (in the video) just kept talking as if nothing happened. Also, there was what appeared to be a huge explosion in the background as evidenced by that flash of light.

And you (yaesu) are correct. The BBC link I provided (just above) stated 2-hours ago; however, checking the photograph from the article, it details 20-02-2023 20:00:00 which would have been yesterday, Monday 20 February 2023.

(I hate when some of these news sites just put "today" or "30 minutes ago" with no date or original time
