This is popular front, a podcast focused on the niche details of modern warfare and

underreported conflict with me Jake Hanrahan.

Today we're speaking again to researcher Seamus Malik Kevzali.

We've had him on the show twice before.

He's very good when it comes to Iran.

I definitely trust him.

He speaks Persian all sorts and

today he's going to be speaking about these bizarre explosions that have been

happening in Iran they're kind of mysterious at first people thought

oh it's maybe some kind of electrical fault then there was another

explosion then there was another one and another one there's a lot of

conspiracy theories some people think it's Israel some people think it's Saudi

Ray but could be either of those but recently a group called the Homeland Cheaters claim the

attack so Shameless is going to tell us what he thinks about that. If you like

what we're doing please support us at at Patreon.com slash Popular Front. Before we get into all of the weird theories around what is going on in Iran and who it might be,

Saudi Arabia, Israel, God knows who else, before we get into all that,

firstly explain to us what has been going on. There's been what four of these

mysterious explosions. Tell us what's happened. Where they've been? All that. There's been more than four at this point.

I think there's been around five or six and that a couple
