Iran/Hezbollah incompetence or IDF/Mossad operation?

Incredible! I saw it on my news feed but didn't see the video until now. Despite the unfortunate death and injury toll, I can't help but be fascinated at the intensity of that explosion.

First thing that comes to mind here, is that they mentioned wheat was being stored in a connecting building. It doesn't happen very often these days, but I remember growing up in farm country and hearing about silos catching fire. If the wheat is stored improperly, it can get so hot during this time of the year that it will catch fire in the right conditions.

Now, what I would most certainly not put next to hot dry silage is a couple tons of ammonium nitrate...
 
Initially reports where saying it was an munitions depot.
But there is usually some fizzle/preliminary/post explosion ordinance being set off.

Will be interesting to watch this one unfold.
 
what a video. Good post. The ammonia nitrate story does have legs because of the smoke cloud. I'm not savvy enough to come up with another angle, or what could produce that big of a pressure wave or that color. Israel has offered support for their northern neighbor, and in some sense they're technically at war. Doesn't seem like Mossad with that being offered.

All I know is I hope antifa and BLM didn't just have an epiphany...
