“Four of our personnel, including two oil tanker drivers, were killed in the incident,” he added, saying facilities “were damaged” but the “fire was brought under control”.

Smoke from fires overnight hung over the capital, casting a dark haze across the city as morning broke.

Residents reported the smell of burning lingered in the air.

Veyskarami said Iran’s oil depots have “sufficient gasoline reserves”.
