Iran's state news agency reported that an explosion was heard in the city of Jask in southern Iran, and Lebanese media outlets carried the report on the evening of 13 November 2026. The initial reports contained no details on the cause of the blast or the extent of the damage.
The three sources were consistent in relaying the report from Iran's news agency, differing only in wording and degree of detail: one led with the short headline that an explosion was heard, while the others stressed the absence of immediate details on the causes, the damage and the nature of the blast.
