Iran Red Crescent warns of toxic rain after US-Israeli attacks on fuel depots

Iran’s Red Crescent warned civilians that rainfall could become toxic following fuel tank explosions triggered by US and Israeli strikes on infrastructure. 

The agency said contaminated rain could cause chemical burns to the skin and damage to the lungs.

In a statement posted on Telegram, the Red Crescent urged people not to go outside during rainfall after explosions and to seek shelter under concrete or metal roofs if caught outdoors.

It also advised anyone exposed to the rain to rinse their skin with running cold water and immediately change any soaked clothing.
