Seaport is latest hit by Iran mystery fires

Yahoo News

At least seven ships have reportedly caught fire at Iran’s Bushehr seaport, marking what appears to be the latest in a series of fires and explosions around the country — some of which have hit sensitive sites.

Iran’s Tasnim news agency says no casualties have been reported.

The state broadcaster showed firefighters tackling clouds of smoke at a shipyard at the southern port on the Gulf. The cause is not currently known.

There have been several explosions and fires around Iranian military, nuclear, and industrial facilities since late June, including a fire at Iran’s underground Natanz nuclear facility.

State run media have speculated sabotage or attacks from the United States or Israel.

Earlier this month Benny Gantz, Israel’s defense minister, said that his country was not “necessarily” behind every mysterious incident in Iran.

  1. Iran definitely has some shi**y neighbors that murdered, moved in and squatted in their old neighbors’ place back in ’48.

    I hear they’re real aholes but the neighbor always says it’s everybody else who has the problem.

    They’ve been kicked out of well over a hundred places in town but I am sure it must be everyone else because they insist that’s how it is. Right?
