The network discusses the possible causes of the explosion at a rocket plant in Iran

Arab News today reports an incident at an Iranian defense industry.

It is alleged that a powerful explosion occurred at the rocket factory, which “led to the appearance of a fireball observed many kilometers from the epicenter”. Possible causes of the explosion are discussed.

On the pages of Arab News, it is stated that the explosion occurred about 20 km east of Tehran, at a military facility in the mountains of Alborz. The material says that the enterprise of the military industry has underground tunnels, where the parameters of various missiles, including cruise ones, are studied.

The statement by Theodore Karasik, a member of the Gulf State Analytics Analytical Council in Washington, is cited. He notes that Israel has been attempting to launch cyber attacks against Iranian industrial facilities.

T. Karasik:

The ongoing cyber war between Iran and Israel is not new. In April, Iranian cyber forces attacked Israeli infrastructure, in particular water facilities. The following month, Israeli cyber forces retaliated against Iran’s military facilities and ports. They attacked the network of one of the ports of Iran, which led to a collapse.

At the same time, an article citing an unnamed source stated that the cause of the explosion could be sabotage in an Iranian factory.
But expert Karasik notes that sabotage at an Iranian missile plant is unlikely.

Expert:

The tactics of installing defective parts from the supply chain cannot be ruled out.

According to an analyst at Gulf State Analytics, the incident at a plant near Tehran could be a continuation of the “virus war” that has been going on for 10 years and which began with the use of the Stuxnet network virus.

According to U.S. intelligence, the facility in the Alborz Mountains is one of the largest industrial test centers in the Middle East.
The press speculates that the explosion at an Iranian enterprise could be the result of the actions of the American side, which decided to avenge the missile attacks of its military bases in Iraq.

Two options ... either a diversion of Israeli special services ... or US special services ... a third option is unlikely.
I am more inclined that the Jews from Mossad were fooling around ... Israeli intelligence in Iran is advanced ... Jews know almost everything about Hezbollah’s operations ... where they get the riddle from.

Finance is everything .. In Iran, there are a lot of opponents of the current government .. Over the past few years, a dozen Iranian nuclear scientists have been killed who were directly involved in the development of a nuclear program

Those where he directly admits - now I have not found, although 10 years ago I read about it. The articles may have been removed (policy "slightly" changed). However, he does not give a refutation for articles in other countries. For example, this one.

Israeli intelligence service "Mossad" is involved in the death of Iranian nuclear physicist Ardeshir Hassanpur, writes the British The Sunday Times newspaper.

Al-Arabia TV Channel spread the message that "Mossad agents" liquidated several operatives of the Islamic Revolutionary Guards Corps of Iran, who worked in southern Libya.

The body of one of the high-ranking commanders of the Shiite terrorist organization Hezbollah, Ali Mohammed Yunis, was found with gunshot wounds near his car on Saturday afternoon, and Yunis's car was ambushed while spying on one of the suspects in cooperation with the Israeli special services. reports Iranian agency "Fars". ETC.
Admit it to admit, and as yet to prove.

Have you seen the short circuit and explosion of a high voltage transformer? So far, nothing says exactly that it is an explosion at a rocket factory, except for a flash

The fact that this is at least diversion is understandable. It is possible that this action is a joint United States, and one regional state with a population of 9 million inhabitants who want to be a regional leader! (The name of the country begins with the letter Izr ...)

Yes, come on, "wanting to be a regional leader"! Tell me too!
First, the leader should not be, but be.
Secondly, there is no one to compete with in leadership. Everything around is in a deep, to put it mildly, problem.
Israel is a leader in fact.

The leader is the one who is followed. And Israel, in fact, "The most pugnacious repeater in the class" does not follow him, but he can nudge those around him at will.

This "repeater" has built a country with a stable and dynamically developing economy, low inflation, high GDP and per capita income, long life expectancy, excellent medicine, successful high-tech, powerful military-industrial complex and exports of 100 billion green. With all my heart I wish all his neighbors to be such repeaters.
Well, and the fact that they "do not follow him" and instead of developing their economies, and taking care of their citizens, for more than 70 years, they all ride on donkeys and try to "throw Israel into the sea", nothing already, apparently, you can't help it, alas ...

[Thrifty]

Halts - while you do not see, but the same Turkey climbs into competitors! You can laugh, but their successes both in the economy and in the military sphere are also impressive! So, years will pass, and you will begin to be crowded out from the world market of technologies and weapons.

For the regional department in the Middle East, it is necessary to profess at least the same religion - preferably Sunni, like most))

[Doccor18]

It seems that Iran simply happened a man-made disaster that once occurred in potentially explosive enterprises.
It is interesting that the universal computerization of industrial and social facilities, born to improve all parameters, is now one of the weak points of any state. If earlier, in order to disable a large port, it had to be “bombarded” with bombs and missiles, now, all this can be done by several people sitting at the monitors in comfortable chairs, perhaps thousands of kilometers away. from the object.
Cyber ​​war has ceased to be a beautiful word about the future, and has become a routine in just 10-15 years.

Good afternoon.

We will not know this. Even so, the Iranians will never be recognized. And we certainly cannot say this either.

Media is no longer relevant - everything is done by pressing a button remotely)).

[KCA]

How can I remotely penetrate a network that is completely isolated, and, I repeat, with an exchange protocol that is completely different from TCP / IP, and besides, encrypted using an unknown algorithm, or with a key of 4096 bits, for example? All the world's supercomputers will chug a hundred years to decrypt

The question is not for the address - I'm swimming in Excel Commercial enterprises were hacked remotely - there were precedents.

[KCA]

Yes, you don’t need to be able to swim, strategic objects only have connections with each other, it’s impossible to penetrate this network from the outside, the cables have been lying since the time of Stalin, and their location is still secret and close to them, nobody will let anyone nearby they live, they know, but now it’s not telephone pairs at all, and in the field of encryption algorithms Russia is not at all an outsider, a leader

[Krasnodar]

We are about Iran))

[KCA]

It makes no difference, the agent who brought the USB flash drive with the virus to a closed laboratory was guilty of the accident in Iranian centrifuges, not all fools in Iran calculated, I don’t know, the agent was traditionally quartered, or was his head chopped off?

[Krasnodar]

I read a different version of events. )))

[Vitaly gusin]

Quote: KCA

It makes no difference, the agent who carried the USB flash drive with the virus into a closed laboratory was guilty of an accident in Iranian centrifuges,

And there is just a difference
The New York Times wrote that the Stuxnet (worm) cyber espionage program was secretly inserted into the computers of German equipment manufacturer Siemens and an Iranian company.
The purpose of these beacons was to collect information about how a computer from a plant in Natanz interacted with centrifuges for uranium enrichment, and send this data back for analysis and provide an opportunity to control the process.
Read on the Internet, EVERYTHING is.

[KCA]

Siemens-Fujitsu produced only industrial computers, theoretically they could be used to control centrifuges, but HOW could they transfer any data for analysis and be subject to external control? This is a millimeter-sized bug in the cinema that all satellites and all locators in cars can see at a distance of thousands of miles, from a bunker with a thickness of reinforced concrete walls 3 meters thick, even the signal of the radio transmitter of the Voice of America radio station will not break through. You need a man INSIDE, to commit sabotage, otherwise nothing

[Kosh]

All this is called sucking sensations out of the finger. Some fables are invented when there was a banal leak of liquefied gas from tanks at one of the sites of a gigantic industrial complex. The gas caught fire and exploded, without seriously damaging anything except the tanks themselves, only the dry grass on the mountain caught fire.
This can be seen both from the footage shown by Iranian TV from the scene of the incident, and from satellite images.
Here are the footage of the exploded vault

And these are satellite images before and after, where you can clearly see a small trace of the explosion of the store itself and black traces of burnt grass and shrubs to the side of it.

Why pearl) They deny the existence of nuclear weapons like Type are silent, there is no nifig. But for a certain amount of random throwing, it is clear that there is. They are interested in such a policy in a number of moments - it seems that they did not admit and do not force the other side to do something radical, and at the same time they will think that it is you, the long arm of MASSAD, one figs)

This is called silence — but by no means denial or affirmation. Maximum - meaningful silence

But what is there to discuss? What, we or the amers did not have this, due to sloppiness? Here is the same ...
I wonder what the Iranians themselves will say, what version they will have. But I think that they will say the same thing - an accident.

Yes, this discussion will be somewhat akin to the expression of the Christomatic character who was asked a question about the book by B. Pasternak "Doctor Zhevago". He replied. "I have not read KNigu, but I know that it is anti-Soviet." So here, too, the reasons for the explosion are unknown (most likely a violation of safety at work, but many "know that the book is anti-Soviet", that is, it is a sabotage of the United States and Israel
