ORVILLE DAM BACK IN THE NEWS —NOT—

EXCERPT AND LINK BELOW:

A massive explosion has taken place near the Oroville Dam in California. The explosion was so powerful, it registered on seismographs with the US Geological Survey as a Magnitude 2.5 Earthquake!

Readers may recall it was this particular Dam which almost collapsed during torrential rains in California several years ago, with its main spillway literally torn out of the ground by raging overflow waters.

Now, an explosion has taken place very near the dam but NO DETAILS WHATSOEVER are being released about it!
Authorities are absolutely “mum” on the topic.

Were it not for the USGS reporting it as a Magnitude 2.5 Explosion, there would be a total blackout of information about this.

ANYONE ELSE HAVE ANY INFO ON THIS?

PUTIN/UK/UKRAINE - TENSIONS - EXCERPT AND LINK BELOW:

Britain sends Royal Navy ship to the Black Sea to help Ukraine stand up to Russia - but Putin hits back by dispatching warship to the region

UK sent HMS Echo to the Black Sea to beef up the presence of Ukraine’s allies

There are fears tensions between Moscow and Kiev could turn into all out war

Gavin Williamson said Britain stands with Ukraine in facing down Russian threat

JUST A REMINDER - THE FIRST STEP PUTIN TOOK - MATTIS WAS ASKED ABOUT IT AT THE TIME - He replied, it is war - Putin was clever to be able to accomplish it in a way that didn’t trigger a violation of the “agreement”, but it is war nevertheless (not exact quote).

My husband works there. They have there own rock crushing, and regularly do blasts. No chemical explosions. They did a blast around 4 yesterday, and it was on the news. I am thinking this is what they are referring to.

No clue. Didn’t,feel it, nor heard any explosion and we probably would have.

The chemical explosions on the USGS map are from planned blasting just above the new spillway to backfill the new spillway walls.
