Morticians stacked bodies two to a tray at Brazzaville's main morgue as state radio reported at least 246 people had died from two days of explosions at an armory that catapulted shells, rockets and other munitions into a densely populated area of the capital of the Republic of Congo.
Police said Tuesday that international firefighters had brought the main blaze under control by Tuesday morning, and prevented it from spreading to a second munitions depot just 100 yards (meters) away. The second depot contains even heavier-caliber weapons, including Stalin's Organ multiple rocket launchers, a military source said, requesting anonymity because he was not authorized to speak to reporters.
