Officials say no one is believed to have survived a powerful explosion at the Accurate Energetic Systems plant near McEwen, Tennessee, as crews continue recovering remains. Humphreys County Sheriff Chris Davis said no survivors have been found and declined to specify how many were killed, citing ongoing identification. He said they can assume the individuals are deceased. The cause of Friday morning’s blast remains under investigation, and foul play cannot be ruled out. A determination could take days, weeks, or months.
