The Kilińska Street explosion of 13 August 1944 — did Germans deliberately plant a bomb?

On 13 August 1944, a massive explosion on Kilińskiego Street in Warsaw's Old Town killed hundreds of insurgents and civilians. According to one hypothesis, German forces deliberately planted a captured tank packed with explosives and remotely detonated it when a crowd gathered around it. The exact circumstances of the tragedy remain disputed among historians.
