Imagine cleaning up after this mess. Hundreds of tons of unexploded damaged ordnance scattered all over. Shudder.

In 1970 I was in Qui Nhon, Vietnam. Some lucky VC mortar crew managed to get an 82mm mortar round into the ammo depot on the other side of the city from where I was.
That sucker exploded continuously for 2 days.

Interesting that there just happened to be a drone filming this exact location at the time of the blast.

While in AIT a group of us had a BBQ on a beautiful grassy hill at the back of our fort. That is until the M.P.s chased us away as it was the Ammunition dump.

Priories... I wonder who manufacturered all them there 22 LONG rifle bullets? Ammo and ice cream only go around once. My guess Ole Soreass made money both ways make it blow it up etc etc. They do have guns that shoot potatoes. World NOT nice place.. And..Trump did it according to CNN.

It looks like there was smoke before the big boom boom.

look at the east, before the “rocket” landed, the area was already smoking. ???

same in the upper left (NW) something is smoking.
