There were some huge explosions today at the airport in Hama, Syria. According to reports, eleven soldiers of the Assad forces were killed in the blasts. Pictures of huge plumes of smoke rising outside the city are available on the internet. The strange thing is that no one seems to know for certain what happened. The Assad regime has yet to announce the news. Sky News in Saudi Arabia is reporting that Israeli jets struck a supply depot for missiles used in the Iranian anti-aircraft missile systems. Some other news sources claim that the Sunni rebels who were recently ousted from the area by the Assad forces left behind booby traps that got tripped and which then set off secondary explosions. Still other sources report that missiles malfunctioned as they were being transferred and that they then exploded. It's really strange. The Assad forces suffer a major blow with significant loss of life, but no one seems to have any real idea how that came to happen.
