BEIJING: An accidental explosion ripped through an armory in central China and killed 17 soldiers while they were stacking ammunition, state media said on Wednesday.
The blast took place on Tuesday afternoon in the Hunan province city of Hengyang and its cause was under investigation, the official Xinhua News Agency said.
A Hengyang city policewoman surnamed Xiao confirmed the accident on Wednesday and said no civilians were injured. The armory is in a rural township on the outskirts of Hengyang.

China's military operates with a high degree of secrecy and information about explosions, plane crashes and other accidents is usually tightly controlled.
With 2.3 million members, China's military is the world's largest. It has enjoyed massive upgrades to equipment and living conditions for soldiers, fueled by two decades of soaring defense spending. Despite that, conditions for much of the sprawling land-based forces remain basic and oversight is often lax.
中国军队高度保密，有关爆炸、飞机坠毁之类事故的信息通常严格控制。
拥有230万之众的中国军队是世界上最为庞大的军队，经过二十年的国防开支飙升之后，军队的装备大幅升级，士兵生活条件大幅改善。尽管如此，庞大地面部队的条件仍为最基本的，监督通常松懈。
While the explosion was called an accident, Chinese security forces have come under attack in recent years from Islamic extremists fighting for independence for the northwestern region of Xinjiang.
这起爆炸被称为事故，然而最近几年，中国安全部队受到追求独立的ysl极端分子的攻击。

Well going by the Chinese record of releasing official death numbers it could well be 170.
根据以往官方公布的死亡记录来看，死亡人数起码有170

This is China, dude! 17 does not even register on the official attention. Most leaders are with their mistresses, unencumbered by such trivial news.

老兄，这就是中国！死17个人并未引起官方的注意，领导都在和他们的情妇在一起，不受这些无关紧要的新闻所约束。

中国对信息总是捂着掩着！所以这些数据不可信，所说的事故原因也不可信！

It can be a mistake or can be a well planned explosion inside army. I'm sure Chinese will not release the exact data.

可能是一个小失误引起，或者是军队内部精心策划的爆炸。我敢肯定中国不会公布确切数据的。
