A large blast rocked the production hall of a company allegedly affiliated with Iran’s top security body and drone industries in the central city of Isfahan on April 29.

Initially, the regional director of the Emergency Management Department of Isfahan Province announced that one person was killed and two others sustained burns as a result of the blast at the production hall of the Ava Nar Parsian Chemical Industries company. Later, Iranian media reported that the death toll rose to two.

Iranian authorities are yet to reveal the cause of the deadly blast, which came just three days after a powerful explosion hit the Shahid Rajaei port in the city of Bandar Abbas had risen to at least 70, with more than 1,200 people injured.

Ava Nar Parsian Chemical Industries, according to its website, manufactures fireworks and gunpowder and operates under the supervision of Iran’s National Security Council, the country’s highest decision-making body on sensitive security matters.

Citing the official company filings, Iran International, a London-based Persian-language news channel with links to the Iranian opposition, reported that certain decisions at Ava Nar Parsian Chemical Industries fall under the authority of the “Intelligence Protection Organization for Weapons and Ammunition Management of Isfahan Province.”

The company is licensed to produce, trade, import, and export commercial, industrial, and chemical explosives, according to the channel.

In addition, British newspaper The Guardian reported in the past that the same complex where the blast took place housed the Iran Aircraft Manufacturing Industrial Company, a key player in the Islamic Republic’s drone program with links to the Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps.

Two days earlier, the head of the Islamic Republic’s Infrastructure Communications Company said that the country foiled a massive cyber attack on its infrastructure.

The latest events, which took place amid indirect nuclear talks between Iran and the United States may have been the result of sabotage by Israel. For years now, Israeli intelligence has been waging a covert war against Iran, targeting the military and civilian infrastructure of the country.

the zionists, aka zionazis, are nothing without their big brother the usa. take the usa out of the picture and the zios would start behaving or be defeated, instead of terrorizing the entire region.
