How did Beirut explosion only have 70 fatalities

It will be more, but not thousands. Most people are injured by flying glass. While very nasty, that doesn't kill you typically. Lots of people got blind probably.
recently war torn country, so hopefully most people would have the instinct to get away from windows after hearing a blast

Halifax in Canada had a similar explosion in 1917 and 2000 people died and the explosion happened in the water near the shore.
The Halifax explosion was approximately 10X as powerful as the Beirut explosion. Not even close.
Halifax 1917: 2.9 kt of TNT (12 TJ)
Beirut 2020: 2.0–2.2 kt of TNT (8–9 TJ)
