“The incident at Iran’s Parchin military site, which is located some 30km (19 miles) southeast of the capital Tehran, was described as being just a fire by the semi-official Iranian Students News Agency (Isna) and the official Irna news agency.
But a pro-opposition website, Saham, argued that the explosion that took place in the facility was so intense it caused the windows of buildings nine miles away to smash.”

According to New York based mass disasters attorney Jonathan C. Reiter, whose law firm has successfully handled multiple civil legal actions involving explosions, no matter the intensity of this type of occurrence, when there are casualties involved the circumstances should always be regarded as serious. Disaster response efforts should be handled accordingly, and reports should accurately reflect what has occurred. Investigators are continuing their probe into what happened at the military explosives facility, which may confirm a number of potential causes for the explosion.
The attorney further notes that although this incident occurred outside of the country, these types of events also happen on the U.S. home front with more frequency than many know, and can serve as reminder of the importance of addressing work related accident deaths appropriately. If proper safety measures are not implemented or unauthorized testing is done at these types of facilities, disaster can readily strike. It is important that workers who see potential hazards on the job that could lead to an explosion or other major disaster to report them to the proper authorities immediately.
