According to a trusted source (military), this plant manufactured and supplied much of the C4 (plastic) explosive, TNT, and SEMTEX to the troops.
As a former USAF explosives detector dog handler with training by Homeland Security after 9/11 as a civilian, I know a few things about these materials. C4 is not easily ignited, can be formed into different shapes and sizes according to need, and smells very much liike Scotch Tape to this human.
I'm no subject matter expert but a small IED, strategically placed, would be enough to set off a nearby stockpile of explosives. The exact cause of the disaster may never be known - there's "nothing left" of the facility.
