Huge explosion of 24 shipping containers of sodium perchlorate received from China for use in Iranian missiles in the port city of Bandar Abbas, Iran.

This chemical is more explosive than ammonium sulfate. He estimates it is about 2X the size of the Beirut Lebanon explosion.

This shipment by China was illegal. Israel was aware of the shipment.

He explains that he can’t put the explosion video on YouTube or they will de-monetize him.

Just like if anyone questions man made climate change on you tube that goes against “the science”

Is that the explosion reported earlier today of a single shipping container?

Per BBC

Residents reported feeling the impact of the blast up to 50km (31 miles) away.

Videos verified by the BBC show a fire growing in intensity before a huge explosion.

One private maritime risk firm said it believed the affected containers had contained solid fuel destined for ballistic missiles.

The fire was the result of “improper handling of a shipment of solid fuel intended for use in Iranian ballistic missiles”, Ambrey Intelligence said.

Ambrey said it was aware that an Iran-flagged ship “discharged a shipment of sodium perchlorate rocket fuel at the port in March 2025”.

The Financial Times newspaper had previously reported that two vessels had shipped fuel to Iran from China.

If Israel was aware of the shipment, they probably are aware of why it went kaboom!

Trump aide to Iranian: “Da boss don’t like some of the stuff youse have been doin’. Let’s just say my advice to youse is it ain’t healthy to be on the wrong side of the boss. Not a good place to be.”


April 11 (Reuters) - President Donald Trump wants Iran to know that there will be “all hell to pay” if it does not abandon its nuclear program, his press secretary told reporters on Friday ahead of talks on Saturday between U.S. and Iranian delegations.
White House press secretary Karoline Leavitt said Trump’s “ultimate objective is to ensure that Iran can never obtain a nuclear weapon” and that Trump believes in diplomacy, but that “all options are on the table” if diplomatic efforts fail.

Israel was aware of the shipment.

Israel was even aware of the train explosion in North Korea, in 2004. Nothing gets by them

Mohammad #1: "Why is there a pocket pager in this container of rocket fuel?"

It’s a component of primers used in corrosive ammo.

I am sure they were. Look up Operation Orchard.

My second thought is maybe dont play around with dangerous chemicals. Sometimes things end badly.
