Explosion takes out giant food factory in Iran! Evacuations ordered for Amol City!

Just before sunset on 05JAN2026 (Iran time) the giant Kalleh Dairy operation blew up! Some sources report several explosions were heard.  As I write this most of the factory is still on fire and evacuations for everybody within a one kilometer radius are taking place.

This Kalleh Dairy is located in Amol City, Amol County, Mazandaran province. Video via Fars News:

Speculators (which include some Iranian government officials) have suggested a construction/welding accident caused a fire which caused an explosion, or it was sabotage by protestors or even a military strike (it is part of the U.S./Israeli military policy to target such places as they are considered ‘dual use’ facilities).

This is not the first time a Kalleh Dairy operation was destroyed.  In 2019 a dairy in Karbala, Iraq, was destroyed by fire and was determined to be sabotage.

2025: News from Iran.

“As Iran has repeatedly made clear: Israel launched war on Iran, not the other way around. As of now, there is NO ‘agreement’ on any ceasefire or cessation of military operations. However, provided that the Israeli regime stops its illegal aggression against the Iranian people no later than 4 am Tehran time, we have no intention to continue our response afterwards. The final decision on the cessation of our military operations will be made later.”-Iranian Foreign Minister Abbas Araghchi, responding to the Trump ceasefire social media post

U.S. Army Soldiers’ quiet protest of President, live on TV?

I tried watching the military parade in DC, at least half of the Soldiers were out-of-step so bad it’s pathetic.  As a Cold War veteran I was insulted, we spent hours per day during Basic just marching around, even parade marching. I had to stop watching the DC parade. However, social media posts are claiming that the out-of-step Soldiers were protesting Trump! I reviewed the videos and it does look like they are intentionally marching out-of-step.
