DUBAI: An explosion within an air pipeline at a petrochemical plant at Assaluyeh on Iran’s Gulf shore killed a employee, Iranian state media reported Wednesday, including that the consequent fire was extinguished. “One employee was killed and the two others have been hurt from the explosion over the air transmission pipeline,” Iran’s state news agency IRNA quoted Abdolnabi Yusefi, governor of Assaluyeh at Iran’s Busher state, as saying. “The motive behind the explosion is under analysis and the flame was extinguished.”
