Iranian media outlets reported Thursday that the headquarters of the Iranian intelligence service in Ahvaz was bombed in a series of strikes, according to journalist Amichai Stein (i24NEWS). The reports follow hours of earlier unverified accounts of explosions in the southwestern city.
At 02:20 Jerusalem time, initial reports emerged of explosions in Ahvaz. At 11:16, footage circulated on social media showing a fire in the city, attributed by Iranian Telegram channels to the US strikes. At 12:26, Iranian media specified that the intelligence headquarters had been targeted. The Zioneer published a bulletin on the claim at 12:27.
The reports come amid a US military campaign of airstrikes across Iran, which has previously targeted military infrastructure in Ahvaz, including the 92nd Armored Division base. The Zioneer has reported on multiple waves of US strikes on Iranian military and strategic assets.
The identity of the attacker, the extent of damage, and any casualties have not been independently confirmed. The claim rests solely on Iranian media reports, which have not been corroborated by official sources or independent verification.
