Unverified reports at 01:26 Jerusalem indicate explosions in the city of Bushehr, southern Iran, about an hour after earlier explosions were reported at the Bushehr nuclear power plant. No details on cause, damage, or casualties are available.
Unverified reports at 01:26 Jerusalem on Wednesday reported explosions in the city of Bushehr, southern Iran. The cause and any damage or casualties are not yet known. This follows an earlier report at 00:22 Jerusalem of explosions at the Bushehr nuclear power plant, located on the outskirts of the city.
The Bushehr area has been the site of multiple unconfirmed reports of explosions over the past week, as The Zioneer has reported. Previous reports have included descriptions of US airstrikes, Iranian air defense activation, and hits on military sites. The source of the latest blasts is not yet identified.
The reports come amid heightened tensions between Iran and the US-led coalition. The Zioneer's prior coverage has documented three consecutive nights of US strikes on southern Iran in early July, as well as exchanges of fire in the Strait of Hormuz. The current reports require independent verification.
