Iran Port Blast: At Least 40 Dead, 1000+ Injured | Tehran Mourns Deadly Explosion | The World Report

In Iran, anger is mounting after a massive explosion at Shahid Rajaee Port killed at least 40 people and injured over a thousand. Fires are still burning as toxic smoke engulfs the area. Early reports suggest improperly stored rocket fuel may have triggered the blast. President Pezeshkian has ordered an investigation, but many Iranians are blaming government incompetence. With nearly 80% of Iran’s imports routed through the port, concerns are rising over potential shortages. Global leaders, including Russia’s President Putin, have offered support as emergency efforts continue.
