Tragedy struck Iran's central city of Kerman as twin explosions claimed the lives of at least 73 individuals and left 171 others injured, according to the latest reports from the Emergency Medical Services of Iran.
The incident unfolded at the Kerman Martyrs Cemetery during a ceremony commemorating the fourth martyrdom anniversary of Lieutenant General Qassem Soleimani, where thousands had gathered.
Emergency response teams were swiftly deployed to the scene to provide assistance to the victims. While some unverified accounts suggest the possibility of gas capsule explosions, provincial authorities have officially labeled the incident as a terrorist act shortly after its occurrence.
Latest reports indicate that the explosions were caused by two bags containing bombs detonating among the assembled crowd. Security and law enforcement agencies are actively working to uncover the details and motives behind this tragic event.
The incident has sent shockwaves through the community, prompting heightened security measures and a thorough investigation into the circumstances surrounding the explosions. As the nation mourns the loss of lives and grapples with the aftermath, authorities are focusing on ensuring the well-being of the injured and bringing those responsible for the attack to justice.
