Good lord! Arms dump explosions in Sofia, Bulgaria!

So, some munitions stockpiles blow up, and then there's a small magnitude earthquake in Sofia... hope everything is well at Chaosgroup!

"The explosions continued for about eight hours. Authorities said smaller blasts were likely in the next 24 hours and urged Sofia's nearly two million citizens to stay calm."

Explosion

So a man made explosion caused an earthquake? How bizarre!

Well, no one is hurt and that's what matters. They say the explosions and the earthquake are unrelated - they happened at opposite ends of the city - but who knows...

Good to hear, Vlado!

Coincidentally, tomorrow is Independence Day in America, where people intentionally set off explosions.

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=kUPIDVMl8XM Quite big one, and "thanks" to the circumstances there are several video records of this. Power of a smaller nuke, just like you can see in the pictures from Sofia, the explosion was so powerful, it threw debris and dust up so high to form the well known mushroom.

It is a miracle that no one was hurt in Sofia.
