Air defense systems were activated in Iran's Khuzestan province in the early hours of Monday, according to reports. The cause of the activation is not yet known.
The activation follows the reported targeting of the Chazabeh border crossing in the same province, where air defense systems were reportedly destroyed earlier tonight. The Zioneer reported on that incident at 02:10 Jerusalem, citing a single unverified source.
The event adds to a series of air defense alerts across Iran in recent weeks. The Zioneer has previously reported activations in Tehran, Yazd, Bushehr, Tabriz, and Hamadan, as well as strikes targeting radar systems. Khuzestan is a strategic province serving as Iran's energy hub and a key IRGC logistics zone.
No group has claimed responsibility for the earlier targeting, and Iranian state media has not commented. The relationship between the two events is not yet clear.
