#4 and, in another unrelated story...a piniped was briefly seen near the Parchin site well inland after the explosion. The SEAL was last seen diving into the river...

#5 Sounds like your standard Soviet designed weapons plant. Put all your big bang stuff in one place for security reasons and hope no one lights a match. Once the missile fuel section (solid fuel?) goes up, it'll throw lots of flaming chunks all over the site.

#6 "The fire, which began at 2:00 p.m. and was put out at 8:00 p.m"

Doesn't sound too bad. We have fires worse than that in my own town. It was a 7 alarm that took 6 hours to put out. Good sized fire but not anything particularly huge.
