According to a source from the Direction de la sécurité civile, there was no in-flight explosion.

I would tend to agree with that, although I'm far from an expert at these things.

Wouldn't an explosion probably have scattered the debris over a much bigger area and into much smaller pieces, just like with MH17, TWA800 and PanAm103 over Lockerbie?
