Tuesday/Wednesday, November 13/14 - about 4 a.m. Sources inside and outside Iran.
A series of explosions rocked the Parchin Military Site (where missiles, including "cruise" type missiles, are manufactured) at Varamin south of Tehran.
The Shahab 3, 4 and more recently Shahab 5 solid fuel missiles at the site are hidden in old salt mines in the mountain face in the area, further excavated and furbished for development and manufacture.
The main purpose of this Ministry of Defense site, established by the late Shah's father - Reza Shah Kabir - in the early 1900's and taken over by the IRGC, had been and has been to manufacture ammunition, chemical explosives and more recently short range rocket missiles.
The exacavated salt mines for longer range missile technology have been expanded by the Mullah regime.
More than likely, the explosives, IED's, rockets and similar items of Iranian manufacture showing up in Iraq and Afghanistan were largely produced at Parchin.

I would love to see the data from the Iraq-based seismic stations.

I don’t believe that the Iranians have anything close to a ‘cruise’ type missle.

May death come swiftly to those terrorist scumbags, and their Mullah masters.

The Shahab 3, 4 and more recently Shahab 5 solid fuel missiles at the site are hidden in old salt mines in the mountain face... Sounds like perhaps a considerable amount of energy was released in a confined space.
As to how that might have come to happen, well... I suppose we'll never know.

Well, there are all sorts of work accidents possible. The automotive airbag propellant factories have had troubles over the years along with numerous fireworks factories.
On the other hand, it's not a good idea to go around pissing folks off.

That is some of the best news I have heard in quite a while. One can only hope that it was some very special sabotage (by the US, UK or Israel). Or not. Godincidence is OK, too :)

Funny how many of these accidental massive military explosions have happened in Axles of Evil countries. N Kor, Syria, Iran.

Maybe it was thousands of prayers that evil implode upon itself!!

This actually appeared on FR (very briefly) on the day it happened. There was no more info, though, and the story went away.
