An explosion of a tanker truck loaded with fuel caused the death of 11 people in Iran, according to the information provided. The accident also resulted in 7 injured.

The tanker truck collided with other vehicles on the road and caught fire following the impact. The fire spread rapidly due to the fuel load it was transporting.

Iranian authorities are investigating the causes of the accident, with one of the hypotheses under analysis being a failure in the heavy vehicle's braking system.

The incident occurred on a road in Iran, a country where fuel transport by road is frequent and where similar accidents have caused fatalities in the past.
