Reuters: Explosion Near Qom Not Result of Israeli Attack - Jordan News

Jordan Newsa day ago
An explosion in a residential building in the Pardisan district of Qom, Iran, injured seven people, but authorities confirmed it was not caused by an Israeli attack, according to Iran's semi-official Fars News Agency. اضافة اعلان The head of the Qom Fire Department told Fars that four apartments were damaged in the blast, with initial reports pointing to a gas leak as the likely cause. Investigations are ongoing. Fars emphasized that the building's residents were all civilians, and no security or military personnel were present. Meanwhile, Qom's governor denied the incident was a terrorist act, according to the Iranian Students' News Agency (ISNA), but confirmed that authorities are continuing to investigate. The incident comes amid a series of explosions reported across Iran following the 12-day aerial conflict last month between Israel and Iran, during which Israeli and U.S. forces reportedly targeted Iranian nuclear facilities. However, Iranian officials have not accused Israel of being behind any of the recent domestic incidents. A source quoted by Fars urged calm: 'People should not worry about rumors regarding Israeli attacks.
If any hostile act occurs inside the country, the public will be informed immediately—and sirens will sound in the occupied territories at the same time.'

Martyrs and Missing Under Rubble in Israeli Airstrike on Gaza - Jordan News

Israeli occupation forces continued their bloody aggression against the Gaza Strip on Tuesday, targeting civilians' homes and displaced persons' shelters, resulting in martyrs and injuries, including children. اضافة اعلان Paramedics from the Palestinian Red Crescent reported the martyrdom of five Palestinians, injuries to others, and a number of people missing under the rubble of a home belonging to the Nassar family near Martyrs' Square in the Al-Shati refugee camp west of Gaza City, following an airstrike by occupation warplanes. The martyrs and wounded were transferred to Al-Shifa Hospital in the west of the city. In another field development, Israeli warplanes bombed Al-Awda Tower (2) located near Al-Quds Hospital in the Tel al-Hawa neighborhood in the southwest of the city after a prior warning, causing panic among patients, medical teams, and displaced persons in the surrounding area. Several Palestinians, including children, were also martyred or injured in shelling targeting tents of displaced families in the Al-Rimal neighborhood west of Gaza, where dozens of families had sought refuge from continuous raids.

These figures are still not final.
