Mourning turns to anger after blast kills 40

In Iran, mourning has turned to anger following a massive explosion at Shahid Rajaee port, killing at least 40 and injuring over 1,000. The blast, attributed to improper handling of hazardous materials like sodium perchlorate used in missile fuel, has incited public outrage over government incompetence. As emergency efforts continue amidst thick smoke, authorities have declared national mourning and warned of potential food shortages due to the port’s critical role in imports.
