Unverified reports indicate that a second major bridge was bombed tonight between the southern port city of Bandar Abbas and the city of Lar, stopping all traffic. The report follows a US strike on a bridge near Bandar Abbas minutes earlier, as The Zioneer reported at 23:25.
A flash report tonight indicates that another major bridge has been bombed in southern Iran, this time between the strategic port city of Bandar Abbas and the city of Lar, effectively halting traffic on that route. The incident comes just minutes after a US strike on a bridge near Bandar Abbas at 23:25, which The Zioneer reported as part of an escalating American air campaign against Iranian military infrastructure. The report is unverified and details on the extent of the damage, the identity of the attacker, and any casualties are not yet available. The new strike, if confirmed, would mark a further expansion of the US operation that has targeted multiple bridges, air bases, and communications infrastructure across southern Iran in recent weeks.
