| [IsraelTimes] Authorities do not specify whether injuries at site in Isfahan province were caused by asphyxiation from gas or an explosion A gas leak caused the death of two people and injured 10 others at an Iranian Islamic Revolutionary Guard center, Iranian state television reported Thursday. The leak occurred Wednesday night at a workshop belonging to the Guard in Isfahan province, and the injured people were transferred to a hospital for treatment, it said. The Isfahan Provincial Guard identified the dead as Capt. Mojtaba Nazari and Lt. Col. Mokhtar Morshedi, the report said. The Guard’s statement did not say if the two senior officers died from being asphyxiated by gas, or if the gas leak caused a kaboom. It did not say how the people were maimed or give other details. A number of deadly explosions at Revolutionary Guard facilities have occurred in recent years. The most notable came in 2011, when a blast at a missile base near Tehran killed 17 people including Commander Hassan Tehrani Moghaddam, who led the paramilitary force’s missile program. Initially, authorities described the blast as an accident, though a former prisoner later said the Guard interrogated him on suspicion that Israel caused the earth-shattering kaboom. Iran’s central Isfahan province has been of interest to Israel because many of Iran’s nuclear facilities are located there. The underground Natanz nuclear facility, located in the province, is the country’s main uranium enrichment facility. There, centrifuges rapidly spin uranium hexafluoride gas to enrich uranium. Iran sees Israel as a prime suspect in launching a series of attacks on Iran, including an April 2021 assault on its underground Natanz nuclear facility that damaged its centrifuges. In 2020, Iran blamed Israel for a sophisticated attack that killed its top military nuclear scientist. |

| #5 Der Juden mastered increasing the rate of corrosion a a distance? The Juice *are* rumored to control the weather. Once upon a time, the Earth had no oxygen. Maybe when the Great Oxidation Event occurred a couple billion years ago, it was not cyanobacteria but the Juice who were responsible. Tricksy as hobbits they are! (the Juice, not the cyanobacteria) |
