Iranian opposition sources say a compound of the defense electronics industry was struck in the city of Shiraz, southern Iran. The claim follows Israeli media reports and footage of ongoing attacks on Iranian military infrastructure, including an earlier strike on electronics industry facilities in the same area.
At 17:36 Jerusalem, Iranian opposition sources have identified the target of a strike in Shiraz as a compound of the defense electronics industry. This update follows a sequence of reports that began at 16:56 Jerusalem, when Iranian sources first claimed an attack on the electricity industry. Over the next minutes, the story evolved through multiple reports: unofficial Shiite channels and Israeli outlet ynet reported a US strike; Iranian opposition sources also claimed a strike; and Iran officially confirmed a strike in the city. At 17:34, Israeli news channel N12 published footage showing the aftermath of a strike on an electronics industry site, adding visual corroboration. At 17:35, Israeli media reported additional attacks in the area. The current claim from opposition sources specifies a defense electronics compound, narrowing the target.
The earliest reports at 16:56 Jerusalem were unverified and attributed to the US. The confirmation from Iran at the same time added official weight, though details remained sparse. The footage from N12 at 17:34 provided visual evidence of the strike on an electronics site. The additional attacks reported at 17:35 indicated ongoing activity. The latest identification by opposition sources is the most specific target claim so far.
The Zioneer has reported on a broader campaign of strikes on Iranian military infrastructure, including attacks on radar systems in multiple provinces (Mon Jun 8, 08:36 Jerusalem), a power plant in Ahvaz (Mon Jul 13, 02:20 Jerusalem), and a Ministry of Defense site near Karaj (Mon Jun 8, 11:43 Jerusalem). The strikes on Shiraz are part of this pattern.
The claim by Iranian opposition sources remains unverified by official Iranian authorities. The extent of damage and casualties is not yet known. The identity of the attacker has not been officially confirmed, though initial reports attributed the strikes to the US.
