A powerful explosion rocked an Israeli military plant near Jerusalem.

A powerful explosion rocked the grounds of one of Israel's largest defense plants late yesterday evening. The sound woke people dozens of kilometers away. Photos and videos of the fireball and smoke billowing into the sky are being shared online.

The plant of the Israeli company Tomer, where the explosion occurred, is located in the town of Beit Shemesh, 30 kilometers from Israel's official capital, Jerusalem. There were no reports of an air strike in the area.



That afternoon, the company's press service officially announced that the explosion was controlled and occurred at the testing site "in accordance with the test plan." rocket engine. However, this explanation raised many questions and doubts.

Israeli media reports indicate that local residents were not notified in advance of the test explosion, despite the company and authorities previously providing the necessary notice. Further questions have arisen as to why the controlled explosion was carried out at night, and on Saturday evening, when Israel observes the Sabbath.



According to unofficial reports, an investigation into the cause of the incident has been launched. Later, some Israeli media reported that the explosion allegedly occurred at the Sdot Micha Air Force Base, in an area where Arrow-3 surface-to-air missiles are stored. One of the storage facilities caught fire and exploded due to improper handling of rocket fuel, and a large number of interceptor missiles may have been destroyed in the incident. Another theory is that a fallen Iranian missile exploded during an attempt to defuse it.

The Israeli company Tomer develops and manufactures heavy and light missiles and aviation Engines. This company also produces rocket engines for the Jericho project, which is linked to Israel's nuclear program.

      There is information that the explosion took place not at the plant, but at the nearby Sdot Miha airbase, where special warheads are allegedly stored.

      I hope this happened after the Hezbollah attack.
      We still need to arrange for the supply of drones to Hamas and Hezbollah.
      So to speak, Alaverdi, now help the Sumerians.

      - exploded during an attempt to defuse it
      A worker in the workshop found a pineapple. It turned out to be an Iranian land mine. She sat down on a chair and began eating. The body was carried six kilometers away.

    At first I read it as "an explosion at an Israeli winery," but when I took a closer look, the reality turned out to be more interesting. Keep up the good work!

    The Jews would like to calm down, but something is stirring them up. However, if the US backs down, Israel will either shut up completely or, if they don't think about it, lose its statehood!

    What did they produce there? At the factory?

      If the explosion occurred at a factory, then it would involve aircraft engines for cruise missiles and missile engines for ballistic missiles. However, there are suspicions that the explosion occurred at Sdot Micha Air Base, where Jericho ballistic missiles and their special warheads are located.

    It's not an explosion, it's a "bang." A special warhead probably explodes without the bang that not only everyone in Israel heard. The palm tree wasn't even broken by the bang.

    This is not enough!
    The Judeofascists openly admit to supplying weapons to the Ukrainian Reich. Previously, this was not allowed; supplies were made not directly, but through third countries.
    How did the Kremlin respond (the official website is called Kremlin.RU)? They wiped their snot after the Israeli fascists refused to allow our grain to be unloaded at their port. So, Israel made it clear to all the Kremlin that Crimea and the grain from there are Ukrainian, and they will not accept it from us. Israel has supplied and will continue to supply weapons to the Ukrainian Reich so that death, labeled "Made in Israel," would kill Russian soldiers.
    The Kremlin responded by resuming direct flights between Moscow and Tel Aviv.
    Draw your own conclusions about the bestial nature of the Chabad Judeo-Ashists and their lackeys.
