Tennessee, a military explosive plant had a strong explosion at about 7:45 AM local time on Friday, October 10, 2025, shaking nearby homes and causing several small chain explosions.
County Sheriff Chris Davis of Humphreys County called it "a devastating explosion" during a press conference. Rescue personnel had basically controlled the scene by the morning of the incident, but there were still multiple people missing after the incident, and some people have been confirmed dead. Multiple emergency agencies rushed to the scene to assess and try to extinguish the fire, but due to concerns about secondary explosions, the core area is currently kept at a safe distance, and on-site rescue operations are proceeding in an orderly manner.
The involved company is Accurate Energetic Systems, LLC, located about an hour's drive southwest of Nashville, at the intersection of Hickman County and Humphreys County. The county sheriff's office stated that the company specializes in producing military explosives, and its Facebook page also states that it manufactures various high-explosive formulas and special products for the U.S. Department of Defense and U.S. industrial markets. Local residents said they clearly felt the explosion shock, with some describing it as if their houses had collapsed. The Hickman County Sheriff's Office has urged the public to stay away from the accident area and assist emergency personnel in conducting rescue and disposal work.
