Iranian sources report widespread power outages in the cities of Dezful and Ahvaz, claiming they result from US strikes. A separate Iranian claim alleges the US is also targeting power infrastructure and nuclear facilities in southern Iran. The reports are unverified by official sources.
Iranian sources are reporting widespread power outages in Dezful and Ahvaz, attributing them to ongoing US strikes. A separate claim from an Iranian source alleges that the US is also targeting power infrastructure and nuclear facilities in southern Iran, marking an escalation in the scope of the reported campaign. The reports remain unverified by official sources.
The first reports of strikes in Dezful emerged at 02:07 Jerusalem, when a missile attack on an IRGC base was reported, followed by claims of damaged power lines, then power outages in Khuzestan province and Dezful, and finally widespread outages across Iran. At 02:15 Jerusalem, a power outage was reported across Ahvaz, with additional outages in Khuzestan and Dezful reported at 02:16. All reports throughout this period have been unverified.
As The Zioneer reported earlier in the night, footage of a strike on Ahvaz was published at 01:29 Jerusalem, and previous bulletins documented power outages in Bandar Abbas and a second wave of US strikes in southern Iran. The current reports add the claim of nuclear facility targeting, which remains unconfirmed.
The extent of damage and any casualties are not yet known. No official confirmation from Iranian or US authorities has been provided.
