New footage posted Friday morning documents a US strike on a bridge in Iran's Khamir province during the overnight wave of attacks. The extent of damage is not yet clear. The strike is the latest in a series of US attacks on Iranian infrastructure, as The Zioneer has reported throughout the week.
The overnight campaign began with reports by security analyst Yair Goldblatt at 00:36 Jerusalem, who claimed all bridges linking Bandar Khomeini to Bandar Abbas were disabled. Shortly after, a US official confirmed to the Wall Street Journal that bridge strikes were aimed at cutting supply lines to Bandar Abbas. Subsequent reports detailed strikes on six bridges, a train station, an airport, and the Chabahar maritime control tower. The new footage from Khamir province adds visual documentation of a bridge strike, following earlier unverified footage of strikes on Konarak and Kish Island.
The strikes are part of a broader US campaign to isolate Bandar Abbas and the Strait of Hormuz, as The Zioneer reported earlier this week. The Zioneer has documented previous strikes on the islands of Qeshm and Bushehr, as well as a strike on a central bridge in Kurdistan province. The campaign has targeted bridges, ports, and military installations to disrupt Iranian supply lines.
The footage remains unverified, and the source of the video has not been specified. No official comment from US or Iranian authorities has been reported on this specific strike. Damage assessment is pending.
