Iran’s Bandar Abbas refinery blast leaves one dead

TEHRAN: An explosion that rocked Iran’s Bandar Abbas refinery last week left one person dead and four in-jured, Iranian state media reported Monday.
The incident occurred during emergency repairs on September 22, with five maintenance workers af-fected. Sadly, one of the injured workers succumbed to their injuries on Monday.
The Bandar Abbas refinery, one of Iran’s largest, managed to maintain its production despite the un-fortunate incident, according to the Iranian Oil Ministry’s Shana news agency.
The loss of life and injuries serve as a sobering reminder of the risks faced by workers in industrial set-tings, even during routine maintenance operations. Investigations into the incident are likely underway to determine the cause and prevent such trage-dies in the future. –Agencies
