    An explosion at a Turkish army depot in Northern Cyprus injured 12 people after a fire broke out in a military zone in the early hours of Thursday morning.

    Explosions at the military zone continued for four hours and spread to an adjacent forest, though the fire has since come under control.

    Do you have witnesses to dispute it? Witnesses at a nearby hotel reported the same thing and some were injured when blasts blew out windows at the hotel.

    I asked a question about whether there was a relationship, the timing is suspicious.
    The official explanation doesn't resolve the question.
