The bomber struck shortly after noon in front of a military base and a sensitive missile technology site.
Various reports regarding the blast have made it a mystery, but an official statement from Iran said a tanker full of industrial gas had exploded in the Parchin industrial area, but due to the mountainous terrain there. There were no large populations, so there were no casualties.
According to Iranian media, the fire broke out last night.
Brigadier General Ahmed Abidi said the blast had nothing to do with military bases. An investigation has been launched into the crash, but no motive has been identified.

Western security agencies have in the past called the site a suspect. According to him, the Iranian authorities have been conducting experiments on nuclear explosions here for more than a decade.
Initially, some fake videos came to light in this regard, but later a video of the affected area started going viral on social media.
