An explosion took place in Bandar Abbas in an eight-floor building, killing a four-year-old girl and injuring 14.[1][2] The first to third floors were seriously damaged, as were some cars and a shop, and the building’s windows were shattered.[3][2]
Unofficial sources stated that Alireza Tangsiri, an Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps (IRGC) naval commander, was the target of the explosion.[3] The IRGC-associated Tasnim News Agency denied the claim.[2]
