An Iranian report claims that American missiles were launched from Kuwait toward a target in the southwestern Iranian city of Dezful. Footage circulating online linked to the city has not been independently verified, and no details on damage or casualties are available.
A new Iranian report, circulating on Sunday, claims that American missiles launched from Kuwait targeted the city of Dezful in southwestern Iran. This is the latest development in a series of reports that began Saturday, when the reported initial claims of missile launches from Kuwait toward southern Iran. The current report identifies Dezful as the specific target but remains unverified, based on a single source, and accompanied by footage of unconfirmed authenticity.
On Saturday, July 18, at 04:33 Jerusalem, the desk published three dispatches: an initial report stating that ATACMS surface-to-surface missiles were launched from Kuwait toward Iran, without details on targets; a video appearing to show an MGM-140 (ATACMS) missile launch from Kuwait; and a security analyst's report of missiles launched from Kuwait toward southern Iran, citing Iraqi reports. All three dispatches were based on unverified, single-source information.
The Zioneer has previously reported on unverified footage from July 13 showing an attack on the Bakri Garrison in Dezful, and on other missile exchanges between Iran and US forces in the region, including footage of Iranian missile fire toward a US base in Jordan on July 11 and Iranian launches toward a US base in eastern Jordan on July 15. These reports form part of a broader pattern of military activity amid heightened tensions.
The new report provides no details on the number of missiles, the specific target within Dezful, or any damage or casualties. The footage circulating alongside the claim has not been independently verified. No official confirmation from US or Iranian sources has been obtained.
