Well if you read the rest of this thread, we identified it as an ammonium perchlorate explosion, which is only used in fireworks, missiles, rockets, and ammo.

i have been reading it.... aluminum in powder is very explosive i just didn't want to go in detail about well... yeah

its too early to tell at this moment, have to see how MSM dismantles it, or if they even ignore it

but yeah, my guess they were storing something that should not have been, and shit got real

sorry i hope the loss of life was minimal

Agreed. Best case this was just some fireworks not being stored properly. Worst case this was a setup to try to initiate war in the region. I hope calm heads prevail
