[[[[On 12 July 2020, an explosion occurred about 8:50 a.m. aboard Bonhomme Richard while in home port at Naval Base San Diego undergoing maintenance. The resulting fire was fueled by paper, cloth, rags or other materials, not fuel oil or other hazardous materials, Rear Adm. Philip Sobeck, commander of Expeditionary Strike Group 3, told reporters that evening.[13] That day, 17 sailors and four civilians were taken to the hospital with non-life-threatening injuries;[14][15] all but five were released by morning of the next day, Navy officials said.[16] As of 13 July, the ship is still on fire.[17]]]]
