The reports describe this as a new wave of attacks in southern Iran, continuing a pattern of strikes that have targeted Iranian air defense and military infrastructure in recent weeks. The Zioneer reported earlier tonight at 21:03 that air defense systems were also activated in Bushehr, southern Iran, as part of the same ongoing wave.
