It’s awful; but it’s hardly a “mushroom cloud” in the nuclear bomb sense. Thought for a minute Iran was outsourcing manufacturing.

It is still unclear what buildings and how many people were affected by the explosion, but one man filming was blown off his feet by the force.

1. Was he filming the explosion before it happened?

2. If not, then what did it matter that he was filming anything?

I hope this isn’t as bad as it looks for their people. Hope all get well and few are killed.

Reminds me of the Galveston explosion in 1947 involving a ship full of ammonia nitrate.

Re: “Mushroom Cloud” from explosions.

While such a cloud is characteristic of any open-air nuclear device larger than a (legendary) suitcase, it will also happen with a sufficiently energetic non-nuclear explosion.

The concussion from the blast is telling. There must be many dead. 100+?

This just popped up - video of the aftermath of the explosion.

Looks like something after a WWII firebombing raid.

Just.....damn.
