Funny, I didn't hear anything
The semi-official Isna news agency claimed the explosion took place after a fire erupted in an "explosive materials production unit".
"Unfortunately, due to the incident, two workers of this production unit lost their lives," the site reported. Other Iranian outlets cited witnesses who said a "loud explosion" could be heard several kilometers away.
The opposition Sahamnews outlet claimed the blast was so powerful it shattered windows some 15 kilometers away from the site, raising the possibility that a far more destructive explosion had taken place than official outlets are letting on.But Iran has since denied that any explosion took place.
In the first official comment on the incident, official Iranian sources said that there had been an “incident,” but not an explosion, at the Parchin plant. Two people are classified as “missing.” The sources added that there was no nuclear work being done at Parchin.Liar, liar, pants on fire!
