Following an earlier report that Iran had launched missiles at oil tankers and a US destroyer, new reports this Saturday evening describe explosions in Sirik and on Qeshm Island, both near the Strait of Hormuz. The initial missile attacks, reported by The Zioneer at 19:29, are ongoing in their impact. The cause of the explosions is not yet clear; they may result from Iranian defensive or offensive operations, or from further strikes. No independent confirmation of the explosions or their nature has been received. The Zioneer will continue to monitor this rapidly developing situation in the Gulf.
