The spokesman said the ministry was investigating the incident but no other details were immediately available.
No immediate report of injuries, but CNN says there is damage.

We have also sent (or it's getting ready to sail) a second carrier battle group there. It's getting crowded in that theater. A run-up to attacking Iran? I think so ...

Iguess we can tell Tom Clancy that all that goody-goody listening gear on the LA class subs ain't worth didly when you can't hear a 100,000 ton tanker from a hundred yards away.

We need Clell Harmon to read your blog so we can harass the old officer-loving Chief some more.
