Putin: "Nice one! Hold my beer."
Pavlograd detonation

Edit:
Before hearing Dima's theories (or anyone elses' really) I'm going to posit that Ukraine had had it's rocket fuel plant running there and/or were salvaging chemicals from ICBMs which may or may not have been being decommisioned. Deep underground (like the place where the NATO command is probably still buried.) I'm going to guess that the same basic weapon was used to do some mining, and they hit pay-dirt. Big time.
All talk, no sources, no confirmation. As usual, disinformation - not that I was expecting anything else.
"Chemical for ICBMs", I am sure this raises an alarm for anyone that does not understand what is an ICBM. ICBM come with their own "chemicals" included in the pack.
Lol. You forgot to snip or edit my actual words before changing them to try to make a straw-man argument. Even the argument you tried to make is pretty meaningless especially since I went out of my way to stipulate that these where my best-guesses.
Here's some other info/conjectures/whatever which were proposed since my post:

Seems that Ukraine had the great idea to (not very speedily) decommission soviet era ICBM's in a small city. Also in the same city, produce more rocket fuel for newer weapons. Then transfer all manner of weapons and ammo through the city to prosecute a war with a fairly near-by adversary who can touch any part of the country at will. Then apparently allow the transported weapons to log-jam in the city. Gee, what could go wrong?
Thank God that there were some actual adult leaders back when the Soviet Union fell apart and most of the nuclear warheads were taken away from these apes.
As for what really happened (if anything), whatever crater is there will be most indicative. I'm awaiting further info on that but there is a lot of secrecy about the whole event at the moment.

There was like a 6 or 8 hour gap with no matches for 'pavlograd' on google, ddg, or bing. (When bothering with MSM just to observe the shit they are feeding the sheeple, I tend to us Bing which still has sort-by-date as a (probably fake-ish) option.)
Looks like they have made a decision that things cannot be totally hidden so to go ahead and admit it, but try to spin it in the best possible light.

Where as a fire which consumed maybe only a single tank of bunker-C in the middle of one of the most important naval base in the world and didn't even shut down the facilities will be talked about as the end of Russia for months straight (and recycled for the duration of the conflict), the little firecracker in Pavlograd means nothing.
I especially like the spin about how since the Russians didn't load their strategic bombers to the gills with ordnance, it means that they are running out. To me it seems much more likely that they put in a few unstoppable hypersonic weapons and knew for sure that that would be all it would take.
Of course the Russians are not going to waste missiles for no reason. Nobody would. My guess is that they are saving up plenty for Poland. And maybe a nice big fatty packed with depleted uranium for the farmlands of the British Isles. Shouldn't bother the British very much since they are on record as saying that DU is not a problem.

Oh, another update. Seems that marginally more stuff can be found using the string 'pavlohrad'. Still analysing.
Anyway, we now have authoritative word from super-reliable Zelenskj himself that two whole people were lost. As can be seen in Al-Jizz-era, Pavlograd/Pavlohrad looks pretty good and the little firecracker seen in other footage did only some surface level structural damage.

Here's a pic of the Russian attack from another totally-reliable-because-it's-mainstream source which I located via bing news.:
