Claim 1: “The source of the #explosions that caused the leak remains unknown.”
SINGLE SOURCE
While France 24 explicitly states that the source of the explosions remains unknown, the other provided evidence for this specific claim consists of dictionary definitions of the word 'cause' rather than factual reports on the event. Therefore, only one news source corroborates the specific detail about the unknown cause of the explosions.
