Iranian media report that a US military attack struck a communications tower in the southern port city of Bandar Abbas minutes ago, according to unverified claims. The report follows earlier unverified footage that emerged this evening appearing to show a US strike on the city.
The latest unverified reports from Iranian media claim that a US military strike hit a communications tower in the southern port city of Bandar Abbas minutes ago. This development comes amid a sustained wave of reported US attacks on the city this evening, following earlier reports of explosions and strikes throughout the day.
The Zioneer's coverage of the Bandar Abbas strikes began Thursday morning (all times Jerusalem), when initial reports of explosions were followed by a sequence of unverified claims, including footage and reports of US missile strikes. By the evening, unverified social media footage surfaced at 22:04 Jerusalem appearing to show a US strike on the city. Shortly after, at 22:58, Iran's Tasnim news agency reported that seven people were wounded and power outages were affecting parts of Bandar Abbas. The latest claim of a strike on a communications tower has not been independently confirmed, and the extent of damage or casualties remains unknown.
The attacks on Bandar Abbas come after a series of reported US strikes on military infrastructure, including the airport and an air force base, as The Zioneer reported in previous days. Security analyst Yair Goldblatt had previously shared footage of a damaged telecom tower in Bandar Abbas after earlier strikes, as reported on July 15.
No official confirmation of the latest strike on the communications tower has been issued, and the reports remain unverified by independent sources.
