An explosion in a building in the Iranian port city of Bandar Abbas killed one person and injured at least 14 others. Iranian officials and state media say the blast was caused by a gas leak, and the country's Revolutionary Guard (IRGC) has denied reports that it was an attack targeting a naval commander.
The incident occurred as the IRGC was conducting naval drills in the nearby Strait of Hormuz, which were being monitored by the United States. In related statements, Iranian officials praised the IRGC as a symbol of national power and a frontline force against what they call U.S. and Israeli terrorism.
