Iraqi media outlets reported that the explosions were caused by a missile attack launched from Yemen, while Emirati media, without citing an official statement, confirmed hearing multiple blasts. Nasa thermal imagery later indicated a fire at a warehouse near the port that is used for fuel storage and transfer, as cited by the Mehr news agency.
