Reports of a US airstrike in Konarak, Sistan and Baluchestan Province, Iran, emerged Thursday afternoon. The province's deputy for security affairs stated that no damage has been reported so far, according to the official. The strike has not been confirmed by US or Iranian authorities.
The Zioneer has previously reported on multiple unconfirmed US strikes on Iranian targets since early July, including in Konarak on July 14. This latest report, attributed to the province's deputy for security affairs, is notable for including a denial of damage, which contrasts with some earlier reports that described explosions and power outages. The lack of official confirmation from Washington or Tehran leaves the situation unclear, consistent with the pattern of unverified reports that have characterized the ongoing campaign.
