Iranian media announced: Explosion sounds heard on Qeshm Island

Iran’s state news agency IRNA reported that four explosions of unknown origin were heard on Qeshm Island. No cause, damage or casualties have been confirmed, and officials have not yet attributed the blasts to any specific incident. The island sits near the Strait of Hormuz, a chokepoint for global oil shipments, so any disruption there is closely watched by energy markets. Investors will look for follow-up statements from Iranian authorities clarifying the source of the explosions and whether energy infrastructure or shipping lanes were affected.
