Iran Says Eastern Tehran Explosion Was Controlled Ammunition Disposal

💥 TEHRAN — Tehran names the blast; the timing of the explanation matters more than the explanation. 📌 LOOK CLOSER: "Controlled disposal" is Iran's fastest off-ramp from the ambiguity flagged when the blast was first reported. It closes the loop domestically and denies CENTCOM a claimed strike. But issuing the denial during active US operations — with Pakdasht's defense-adjacent facilities already under scrutiny — means the explanation will be stress-tested against satellite imagery.
