A very large explosion has occurred in China.
There is NO SUGGESTION WHATSOEVER that this is a nuclear explosion, it is believed to be an accident involving dangerous goods.
The scale of destruction has however been compared to that expected from a low yield nuke.
A study of these pictures certainly suggests little hope for those very close to the blast, but a reasonable chance of survival a mile away.
Chinese disaster, pictures I must again stress that this is a conventional explosion, but of a size arguably comparable to a low yield nuclear weapon as might be used by terrorists.
Interesting though tragic viewing.
