A tragic explosion has occurred at a facility belonging to the Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps (IRGC) in the Iranian capital of Tehran. According to Iranian state media, one person has been killed and ten others have been injured in the incident.

The explosion reportedly originated from a gas cylinder, and it occurred in an ammunition storage area within the IRGC facility. The cause of the explosion is currently under investigation.
