>At least two people were missing and numerous others were treated for injuries on Saturday after blasts were reported at an explosives plant in the central Russian town of Dzerzhinsk, the Interfax and RIA news agencies reported.
>A section of the facility in Dzerzhinsk, about 250 miles east of Moscow, was partially destroyed and a fire broke out where explosives and ammunition, including aerial bombs, were stored, Russian news agencies said.
> Dzerzhinsk is one of the worst-polluted cities of the world and has a life expectancy of 42 years for men and 47 for women, with the 2003 death rate exceeding its birth rate by 260%

Obviously the work of Western spies and saboteurs.
its where they produce their smartest russian weapon: FAB500
Julian Johnson
TNT plant, not ammo
Jaxson Morales
Honestly, between the Kuznetsov getting assassinated by a crane, that other missile plant burning a few weeks ago, and now this, you gotta wonder. This is Russia we're talking about, though, so it could very well just be poor safety standards.
Josiah Anderson
>42 years for men We joke that the Middle East is still in the Middle Ages mentally but fucking Russia's over here is remaking the "dying at the old age of 40" meme.
Brody Harris
Yeah, that's kinda terrifying. Imagine turning 20, and realizing that, statistically, your life is half over.
Jaxson Watson
Only fragmentation injuries and nobody got vaporized? That's pretty damn lucky.
Jack Johnson
It's definitely possible,but if anyone died in this, would you really expect the Russian government to report it immediately?
Logan Cooper
And it's a town of 200k+ people, fuck me. How many other towns are like this?
Christian Hall
It's because of infant mortality. The average is getting dragged down by a bunch of 0-5s.
Joshua Baker
That makes it even worse. Maybe they should just deport anyone of child-bearing age out of there.
Samuel Torres
And? Russia is supposed to be a fucking Western country, that isn't an excuse.
Juan Perez
>Western country >located in the East ???
Alexander Rodriguez
That's a good point. Half of Russia is a toxic waste dump. I'm hearing they are only getting the equivalent of a chest x ray.
Colton Powell
>Russia is supposed to be a fucking Western country I don't think anyone who isn't Russian thinks that. There have been various Russian leaders who have tried to emulate the west, like Peter the Great, but generally speaking, Russia has always been somewhat culturally distinct from the rest of Europe.
Xavier James

>I'm hearing they are only getting the equivalent of a chest x ray.
I thought I was joking when I say Russia is a third world country
Hunter Reed
>third world Not what it means, retard.
Hunter Barnes
It's kinda always played second fiddle to the rest of the European powers. Nothing happened, so much as things returned to their natural state. This is the same country that managed to maintain feudalistic serfdom until 1861.

Exploitation by the Mongols, then the Muscovite Company, then half retarded Romanovs, then bolsheviks and foreign intervention.
any expert know if this was an explotion by a bomb, apprently there was a super computer near that area that place also got fucked up
Oliver Phillips
Sounds like they shouldn't be building valuable research parks next to poorly-maintained bulk chemical storage facilities. Zoning laws are a thing for a reason.
Jaxon Peterson
Not if you think that people will randomly drop dead when they reach 40. As long as you make/made it past the first two years you can live a long normal life.
Thomas Campbell
Ammo factories are highly automated and mechanized, it's not the 40s any more where mommy spends her day mounting detonators to grenades so daddy has somehing to blow up capitalists with.
Gabriel Bell
So ammo prices are going to go up?
BUY BUY BUY MORTIMER!
Grayson Williams
probably a test firing of their new 10mm steel case loading. and thats why you dont trust steel case wolf ammo.
Austin Richardson
he's telling her to duck and cover
Blake Butler
not in russia
Oliver Wright
only for FAB500. russians will cancel all bomb raids against syrian corn fields.
Ayden Bell
was that literally the only plant that produced FAB-500?
Jeremiah Sanders
>Dzerzhinsk As long as it's not Barnaul or Izhevsk, I don't give a damn
Aaron Williams

That city seems to be Russia in nutshell.
>The Shukhov Tower was a part of a 110kV three-phase AC transmission line crossing the Oka River commissioned between 1927 and 1929. For the Oka River crossing, six hyperboloid pylons (three for each power-line) were built: a 20-metre (66 ft) tall anchor pylon, a 68-metre (223 ft) tall crossing pylon on the hillier south shore, and a 128-metre (420 ft) tall crossing pylon on the lower terrain of the north shore. >In 1989, the power line was rerouted and the 20 and 68 metre pylons were dismantled. The 128 metre pylons were left intact as a monument. Today, only one of the 128-metre pylons stands as the other was illegally demolished[1] for steel scrap in May 2005.

Happens all the goddamn time. Vatnik armsdealers do some shady black market deals then blow the place to high hell to hide their traces
Christian Mitchell
>the processing facility at the JSC Kristall Research Institute plant has been completely destroyed by the blast >79 people asked for medical help >15 people were hospitalised, but no one had died
Something don't add up here.
Landon Parker
>talking out my ass, the post
Elijah Allen
Because it clearly was planned up. All the explosives is already somewhere in Middle East or Iran. But now there is no evidence because everything go boom.
Serving in the US military is safer then doing construction or logging. It's safe as fuck.
Leo Powell
>Shukhov Tower on the Oka River, the unique architectural construction—the 128-meter (420 ft) steel lattice hyperboloid tower built by Soviet engineer and scientist Vladimir Shukhov in 1929 is located near Dzerzhinsk on the left bank of the Oka River. There used to be two towers, but one was stolen for scrap metal in 2005. >There used to be two towers >but one was stolen for scrap metal in 2005. Some vatnik stole a fucking 420ft tall tower and sold it for scrap metal.
>illegally demolished for steel scrap fuckin gypsies
Nathan Gutierrez
Is that a nuke?
Kayden Evans
No, just a regular ol kaboom. Vid related wasn't either; happened at a UK steelworks last month when a wagon of molten steel accidentally tipped over and poured into water.
This. Make it out of the early years you were probably going the distance to 60+, but remember how much life will progressively fucking suck without modern medicine, glasses, dentistry and replacement hips and knees.
