iran’s army confirmed crew safely evacuated after vessel caught fire under unclear circumstances.

Tehran, Iran – One of Iran’s largest navy ships has sunk after catching fire near the Strait of Hormuz under unclear circumstances.

The Kharg, named after an island nearby that serves as a key oil terminal, caught fire in the early hours of Wednesday local time and more than 20 hours of rescue operations failed to save it, the army said.

An image taken late at night showed crew in life jackets running away with a fire raging behind them. Another image, taken in daytime, showed heavy smoke billowing to the sky and fire still burning.

Iran’s army also identified the Kharg as a “training ship” and confirmed there were almost 400 crew and trainees on board, before adding all of them were safely evacuated.

Translation: PR of the second maritime district of Jask has announced that after a fire broke out at the Kharg vessel and personnel were moved to the beach, the rescue operation for the training vessel failed after 20 hours of all-out work due to the spreading of the fire and the vessel rested in the Jask waters.

A local army official told the semi-official Tasnim news agency that 20 people suffered minor burns.


No reason was provided for the cause of the fire but an army official told Iran’s IRNA the fire started in the engine room and parts of the ship’s body melted and fell into the sea.

The vessel sank close to the port of Jask in the south of the country, near the Strait of Hormuz, a strategic waterway.


The vessel was built in Britain and launched shortly before Iran’s 1979 Revolution and entered the Iranian navy in 1984 after several years of negotiations.
The army official told Tasnim that much of its equipment had been overhauled by Iranian engineers in recent years.

It was capable of providing replenishment at sea to help other ships, could lift heavy cargo and also had launch and landing pads for helicopters.

The Kharg’s sinking marks the latest big naval incident for Iran in recent years.

Last year, a missile was mistakenly fired during a military training exercise at sea, killing 19 sailors and wounding 15 others.

An Iranian navy destroyer also sank in the Caspian Sea in 2018.

BABA GOD has so many weapons he uses to fight and Cripple stubborn people and Nations.

BABA used lice, darkness, grasshopper, frog, hail , Death of First born of Humans and Cattle etc to Shutdown Pharoah and Egypt of old.

BABA used 1 angel to kill 185,000 Soldiers of Assyria when Sennacherib and Rabshakeh, the President and captains in Syria were bragging and Barking at Israel.

BABA turned Nebuchadnezzar to an animal and sent him to the bush to eat grass when he became proud.

BABA sent Korah, Dathan and Abiram and all connected directly to them alive to Hell when they Challenged His Elect Servant, Moses.

BABA struck Herod dead and sent worms to eat him up when he made himself to be Compared to GOD

When His own people Isreal became stubborn, BABA sent snakes to bite them.
At other times he sends people to Deal with them.

This Iran Ship was Wahala is Clearly BABA GOD'S Handwork. Iran leadership has been barking too much especially on BABA GOD'S First Born, Israel.

Iran leadership should remove their hands From Israel. If not it would consume them.

It's not the first or tenth time Iran is having Mysterious things like this. The more they are stubborn, BABA throws one thing into them.

Let's Fear GOD.

Israel does not really need to fight this Iran of a country directly,the use of sabotage will do a better job than millitary assault. If their ships are not shooting themselves during training,their Anti air crafts will always be misfiring on civilian airlines.
