It's a fire, I doubt it's an attack. If it was an attack, they would most likely have blown the place up directly instead of setting it on fire.

I agree that it's just an unfortunate fire that caused the explosion, but if you want to blow a fertilizer factory the best way to do it would be to set it on fire. A smart attacker wouldn't plant a bomb on a bomb if it just needs a fuse.

What the attacker probably wants is attention and a fire doesn't quite get the attention a bomb gets. But true, a fire is probably much easier and I imagine bombs aren't exactly easy to get/create in the US these days so who knows.
