The photo, released by opposition channels, purportedly shows the aftermath of the American strike on the southern port. The image follows footage released by the same sources minutes earlier. The authenticity of the photo has not been independently verified.
Iranian opposition sources have released a photo from the port of Sirik in southern Iran, reportedly taken after the recent US airstrike. The image follows the release of footage from the same sources at 00:32 Jerusalem, as The Zioneer reported. The photo adds a still image to the visual record of the aftermath of the strike.
The thread of reports on the Sirik strike began at 00:05 Jerusalem, when Iranian media and security analysts reported at least eight explosions near the port, with air defense systems activated. Subsequent reports at 00:05 identified an IRGC naval base on Sirik Island as the target and specified that the US strike had set IRGC ships ablaze. Also at 00:05, a photo from Sirik port was released by opposition sources, and footage was released by the same sources. US Central Command stated its goal was to 'exact a heavy price' for attacks on civilian ships. At 00:32 Jerusalem, The Zioneer reported the release of footage from opposition sources.
Sirik port has been a recurring target of US strikes in recent weeks, as The Zioneer has previously reported.
The authenticity of the photo has not been independently verified, and no independent confirmation of the damage is available.
