Garut's beach, which was the location for the explosion of expired ammunition in Sagara Village, Cibalong District, Garut Regency, West Java, is located in a sterile area and far from residential areas. In fact, the area was heavily guarded when the TNI carried out the destruction of ammunition in the area.
"This location is far from residential areas because it is close to the sea," said Cibalong sub-district head, Dianavia Faizal, quoted by VOI from Antara on Monday, May 12.
Dianavia revealed that the area is often used as a location for the detonation of hazardous materials by the TNI, and it is indeed far from residents' houses.
"The distance from the sub-district office is about 8 kilometers, which is quite far away and safe for residents from the threat of danger," said Dianavia.

He added that every time there was an ammunition explosion, the TNI always informed the sub-district first, and his party then socialized the information to local residents.
"This detonation activity has been routinely implemented, and the public is used to the sound of explosions in this area," he explained.
Dianavia also stated that residents had been given prior information, so they were not surprised if there was a vibration in the building or the sound of an explosion from the activity.
