It was. That happens when the fuses are damaged or not set properly. Too many rides in the trunk of the SAAB station wagon. LOL.
It IS an in the can detonation, the explosive flash comes out of the morter tube microseconds before blowing up the morter and its feeder. You can freeze frame the video and see it. For that to be an external hit, the incoming round would have had to thread that small morter tube, highly unlikely. But a sniper round into the base of the tube might set of the explosive, that might have happened but again , unlikely. Allah definitely took one home!
Funnier than hell with the cheering Alahu Akbar peanut gallery.
ZOT!
Thanks for clarifying the source of the explosion. It’s more fun knowing that the idiot caused this himself.
I can’t disagree with you (we just don’t know), but see my previous post for an alternative explanation.
