Valiallah Hayati, deputy governor of Khuzestan province for security and law enforcement, said the 'American terrorist enemy' struck a point near the city of Abadan with a missile. No casualties or damage were reported. The claim follows a report by Iran's Mehr News Agency minutes earlier that the US attacked Abadan.
Deputy Governor of Khuzestan Valiallah Hayati said on Sunday that the United States struck a point near the city of Abadan, southwestern Iran, with a missile. Hayati described the attacker as 'the American terrorist enemy.' No casualties or damage have been reported. The claim comes minutes after Iran's Mehr News Agency reported that the US attacked Abadan, also without reporting casualties. Earlier on Sunday, at 10:32 Jerusalem time, The Zioneer reported that a separate US strike targeted the city of Shadegan, also in Khuzestan, as confirmed by a different Iranian official. The strikes are part of a broader US campaign against Iranian military infrastructure that has continued for weeks. The details of the Abadan strike remain unverified, and the US has not issued a statement.
