[Regnum] An explosion occurred on April 17 at a plant for the production of ammunition components of the British company BAE Systems in Wales. This was reported by The Telegraph, citing a source in the company.

“The explosion occurred at a weapons factory. Emergency services were called to the BAE Systems factory in Glascode in Monmouthshire,” the article says.
