😢 A huge explosion rocked Iran’s biggest port, Bandar Abbas, on Saturday, causing at least 14 deaths and injuring over 700 people.
The blast happened when some chemical materials in a container exploded at the port. Imagine how scary that must have been! 💥
Three Chinese citizens were among those who got hurt, but thankfully, they only had minor injuries and are recovering well after getting medical help. ❤️🩹
Because of the explosion and the air pollution it caused, all schools in Bandar Abbas are closed. The governor, Ahmad Pouyafar, announced this to keep everyone safe. 🏫❌
Rescue teams rushed to the scene to help the injured people. All activities at the port are stopped for now, and more people might still be found hurt. 🚑
Iran’s President, Ebrahim Raisi, shared his sympathy for the victims and has ordered an investigation to find out what happened. He also sent the Interior Minister to help coordinate efforts. 🕵️♂️
Even Iraq, a neighboring country, is sending their condolences and offering to help. It’s heartwarming to see countries supporting each other in tough times. 🤝
Right now, everyone is waiting to learn more about why this happened, and officials are asking people not to jump to conclusions. Let’s hope that everyone gets the help they need! 🙏
