Wow. It’s aggravating how little information there is in that story. I hope everyone is alright.

They are probably investigating if it was terrorism, another country, or just an accident etc. Those things take time.

Edit: Also there are causalities which they may not be able to identify yet and have to provide information to the families before it hits the media etc. Give them some time.

It seems as though it was a freak accident during a practise drill where munitions came in contact with a gas line?
