Massive Explosion At Parchin Military Site In Iran… Top Nuclear Scientist Killed!!!
‘Deadly fire’ at Iran military explosives facility
One report says an explosion near the Parchin complex south of Tehran could be heard for miles
The semi-official Iranian Students News Agency (Isna) said the fire was in an “explosive materials production unit”.
A pro-opposition website reported a huge blast near the Parchin military site, south-east of the capital, but this was not confirmed.
Parchin has been linked to Iran’s controversial nuclear programme.
The International Atomic Energy Agency (IAEA) has not been given access to the complex since 2005.
Analysts say the IAEA suspects Iran of experimenting with explosives capable of triggering a nuclear weapon at Parchin.
