Here is a video link https://youtu.be/SoYQLOh6_rk
looks like an explosion from outside the ship caused that....not sure what it could have been
Usually, that would be a bomb of some sort. Exterior explosions taking down ships that aren't bombs are very, very, very rare.
The photo has a video box over it- here's an unobscured one.

That's not a "chemical fire", it's an "everything is on fire" fire.
I wonder what caused the green container to have a cut out section like that? Hmmm.
