TEHERAN - An explosion rocked a key oil refinery in Iran's southwestern city of Abadan overnight, state media said on Friday , reporting no casualties.

The blast"did not cause any casualties", it added, noting that production at the refinery was continuing as usual. Industrial accidents are common in Iran, with a series of similar incidents occurring last year, including a large fire at an oil refinery in southern Teheran. A cyber attack last October halted all fuel distribution stations nationwide, prompting sharp responses from Iranian officials, who accused the United States and Israel of being behind the attack.

AMK had only 2 $1 million dollar flats in 2020, 5 in 2021 but 11 before July 2022 though the recent Kebun Bahru Court account for half of it.
