Humphreys County Sheriff Chris Davis said the blast at Accurate Energetic Systems, which supplies the military, was one of the worst scenes he’s ever seen. He said multiple people were killed but declined to say how many, referring to the 19 missing as “souls” because officials were still speaking to family.

“There’s nothing to describe. It’s gone,” Davis said of the plant.

There's aerial footage at https://www.newschannel5.com/news/explosion-reported-at-accurate-energetic-systems-in-the-bucksnort-area (though adding suspenseful music to it seems a strange choice for a news report) - it must have been an awful explosion.
