Iran's Government’s spokesman Ali Rabiei said on Monday that technical failures were the root cause of explosion in the launch pad.

Highlighting the details of the accident, Rabiei said the explosion happened prior to transferring the satellite to the launchpad.

He added that such accident that happened in Semnan Space Center usually happens even in the developed countries.

Fortunately, the accident had no casualties, he reiterated.

We do not know how the US President Donald Trump releases pictures and tweet in this end and showed his surprise, Rabiei said adding that the issue is clear and Iranians' spare no efforts to develop their knowledge in the field

Mainstream media was trying to imply that they are able to carry out espionage missions in Iran to conduct sabotage, Rabiei said.
