The American explosives manufacturing plant in Tennessee, where an explosion occurred the day before, causing a secondary detonation, received a large order shortly before the incident. This is reported by the newspaper "Strana" with reference to the data of the Pentagon.
We are talking about a deal worth $ 120 million.
"As follows from the Pentagon's message, the contract was announced on September 23 ... the explosives were intended for the production of 155 mm shells," the newspaper writes.
