According to security analyst Yair Goldblatt, the US military struck the Parchin military base south of Tehran during overnight operations, adding to a wave of strikes on targets deep inside Iran. The reports are unverified by official sources.
Overnight, security analyst Yair Goldblatt reported that the US military struck the Parchin military base south of Tehran, adding to the wave of strikes deep inside Iran. The report comes hours after initial coverage of the overnight operation.
At 08:04 Jerusalem, The Zioneer first reported on the overnight strikes, citing CENTCOM and Iranian sources that US forces hit multiple provinces including Parchin east of Tehran, and that Iranian air defenses were activated over the area. A separate report published at the same time listed 12 cities struck but did not include Parchin. The analyst's report now provides a specific source naming Parchin as a target, consistent with the earlier CENTCOM account but placing the base south rather than east of Tehran.
The Zioneer has previously reported on the expanding US campaign, including strikes on Ahvaz, Isfahan, and Balochistan province, as part of a broader escalation.
The analyst's report is based on a single source and remains unverified by official channels. The location discrepancy between the earlier CENTCOM report (east) and the analyst (south) has not been resolved.
