According to the pirate, the whole fragging thing was the corps' faults. Peaceful demonstrators had been protesting outside the corp zone on Sand Island, and at about oh-four-hundred, the zone's corp sec-guards had—without provocation—opened fire. It was only then, with scores of their comrades injured or dying, that some of the protesters did something —the pirate announcer wasn't precisely clear on what—that caused the explosions as "fair and just retribution" for the corp-instigated carnage.
