Primary source Internal intake · 2 reviewed intake signals · Desk window 01:43

TL;DR

Iranian media reported that the current wave of US airstrikes is hitting targets in central Iran, not only near the Strait of Hormuz, and described the attacks as more intense than previous nights. The reports are unverified and Iranian state media has not officially commented on the scope of the strikes.

01 · THE DISPATCH

Iranian media outlets claimed early Monday that the United States has expanded its airstrikes to central Iran, describing the current wave as more intense than recent nights. The reports suggest that strikes are no longer limited to areas near the strategic Strait of Hormuz. The claims come about an hour after the US military announced a new wave of strikes against Iranian forces in the Strait of Hormuz, as The Zioneer reported (00:39 Jerusalem). The scope and targets of the reported expanded strikes remain unconfirmed, and Iranian state media has not issued an official statement. The development, if verified, would mark a significant escalation in the US campaign against Iranian military infrastructure.
