Suspected explosion hits area of Iran missile base; Israeli involvement speculated UPDATE: Iran sez ‘False News’
|
[IsraelTimes] Residents of Khorramabad said to hear ’terrible sound,’ feel the ground shake near Imam Ali underground base, which makes Shahab-3 missiles capable of hitting Israel
A suspected explosion rocked the area of the Iranian city of Khorramabad on Monday evening, with some unofficial reports speculating it could have been a sabotage operation in a nearby underground ballistic missile base.
Iranian media outlets affiliated with the country’s Islamic regime reported that a "terrible sound" was heard by local residents, who also said the ground had been shaking.
"It was like Yoko Ono was singing! It was horrible!"
However,
death is not the end. There remains the litigation over the estate...
official reports said later that no earthquake had been recorded in the area, and authorities also denied that a kaboom had taken place, adding that the source of the disturbance was being investigated.
Situated some 35 kilometers (22 miles) from Khorramabad is the Imam Ali base, one of Iran’s two underground missile silos, where former president Mohammad Khatami ordered the production of Shahab-3 medium-range missiles — new variants of which have a range of 2,000 kilometers and are thought to be capable of hitting Israel and of carrying a nuclear warhead.
The semi-official Tasnim news agency reported that around 10 p.m. on Monday, "strong shocks accompanied by a terrible sound caused tremors in parts of the city of Khorramabad, causing panic and disrupting the peace of the people at night."
The report added that after it became clear that no earthquake had been recorded, "the occurrence of the earth-shattering kaboom became more prominent in the minds of the people."
Some observers, such as US-based Iranian-American Middle East researcher Erfan Fard of the Counter-Terrorism Center, suggested the incident could have been a successful operation by Israel’s Mossad spy agency.
Unofficial and unverified reports said the operation may have been conducted using attack drones.
Israel views Iran
...a theocratic Shiite state divided among the Medes, the Persians, and the (Arab) Elamites. Formerly a fairly civilized nation ruled by a Shah, it became a victim of Islamic revolution in 1979. The nation is today noted for spontaneously taking over other countries' embassies, maintaining whorehouses run by clergymen, involvement in international drug trafficking, and financing sock puppet militias to extend the regime's influence. The word Iran is a cognate form of Aryan. The abbreviation IRGC is the same idea as Stürmabteilung (or SA). The term Supreme Guide is a the modern version form of either Duce or Führer or maybe both. They hate Jews Zionists Jews. Their economy is based on the production of oil and vitriol...
as its greatest threat and has repeatedly threatened to take military action to prevent Iran from acquiring nuclear weapons. Iran denies seeking such weapons and has vowed a harsh response to any Israeli aggression.
IRAN DENIES 'FALSE NEWS' OVER MISSILE-RELATED BLAST
Iranian media quoted officials in Lorestan, who allegedly expressed concern about “false news and speculation,” indicating that this may be a security and political issue. “We request the people of Lorestan not to pay attention to rumors and to receive news only from official authorities and media,” the authorities said.
Jason Brodsky, policy director at United Against a Nuclear Iran, noted that “there have been mysterious explosions at Imam Ali Base before in Iran,” in a post on social media, referencing similar incidents that have occurred there, including in 2010.
