The death toll from a significant explosion at Iran’s Bandar Abbas port has risen to at least 70, with over 1200 injured, as firefighters manage ongoing blazes 48 hours post-incident. The explosion, which occurred in the Shahid Rajaee area, has prompted an investigation into potential negligence and security protocol violations, with local authorities now overseeing firefighting efforts. Iran’s Supreme Leader has called for an inquiry to explore possible sabotage, while poor chemical storage is suspected to have caused the explosion, amid ongoing nuclear talks with the U.S.
