The United States has attacked the city of Asaluyeh in southern Iran's Bushehr province, according to reports from Iran. The reports provide no further details. The strike is the latest in a sustained US campaign against Iranian military infrastructure, as The Zioneer has reported.
A new report from Iranian sources, posted at 16:07 Jerusalem time on Thursday, claims that the United States has attacked the city of Asaluyeh in Bushehr province. The brief message does not specify the type of attack, the target, or any casualties. The report is the latest in a sequence of accounts that have steadily emerged throughout Thursday, following initial reports of a fire and a wave of strikes in Bushehr late Wednesday night.
Earlier on Thursday, the thread of reports grew more specific. At 14:24 Jerusalem, The Zioneer reported that the governor of Asaluyeh accused the US of attacking 10 fishing boats at the Benood pier. At 15:02, Iranian media circulated unverified images of a boat attack in the Asaluyeh area. At 15:04, security analyst Yair Goldblatt reported that US strikes hit new targets in southern Iran, including Asaluyeh and Khamran, causing casualties. The new report at 16:07 appears to build on these accounts, though it does not provide additional detail.
The broader US campaign against Iranian military infrastructure, which The Zioneer has covered since the first reports overnight, includes strikes on targets in Bushehr, Bandar Abbas, Qeshm Island, and other locations, as detailed by the Abu Ali Express at 08:08. A US official confirmed to Fox News that strikes are ongoing. The authenticity and specific nature of the reported attack on Asaluyeh city remain unverified, and the US has not commented on any of the latest reports.
