Una devastante esplosione si è verificata alle 12:17 locali (GMT+3:30) ovvero le 10:47 (UTC+2) italiane del 26.04.2025 nel porto di Shahid Rajaee, sullo Stretto di Hormuz, nei pressi della città di Bandar Abbas in Iran. Non sono note le cause dell’esplosione ma il sito specializzato «Maritime Executive», ha riferito che potrebbe trattarsi dell’esplosione di materiale ad uso bellico proveniente dalla Cina. In particolare “In February and March, The Maritime Executive tracked the progress from China of two sanctioned ships owned by Republic of Iran Shipping Lines (IRISL), MV Golbon and MV Jairan (Jeyran), which then unloaded their cargoes of sodium perchlorate“. Ci sono numerose vittime.
