01 · THE DISPATCH

At approximately 23:16 UTC on June 10, local Iranian sources reported multiple explosions across southern Iran. A Hebrew-language security source described the incident as the beginning of a second wave of American airstrikes targeting what it called the Iranian regime's terror infrastructure.

This is the latest in a sustained campaign of US strikes against military assets in Iran, which have been ongoing since at least 03:05 UTC earlier today. The Zioneer has documented multiple waves of blasts reported in Bandar Abbas, Qeshm Island, Jask County, and Kish Island over the past several hours. At 23:14 UTC, Iranian air defense systems were reported to have been activated. Minutes later, at 23:16 UTC, a US official confirmed to Fox News that the strikes were ongoing.

The current reports remain unverified. Iranian state media has issued no statement. The nature of the targets, casualties, and extent of damage are not yet known. The Zioneer is tracking this event as a developing situation.
