Security analyst Yair Goldblatt reports on X that Bandar Abbas International Airport was attacked and shut down, citing Iranian sources. The report follows earlier images of strikes in the area. The extent of damage and casualties remains unconfirmed.
Security analyst Yair Goldblatt, citing Iranian sources, reported on X that Bandar Abbas International Airport was attacked and shut down, at 01:59 Jerusalem tonight. The report follows a series of posts from Goldblatt earlier tonight at 01:06 Jerusalem, when he shared a powerful image and additional footage from strikes in the area, as The Zioneer reported.
All three prior versions of this story were published at 01:06 Jerusalem: first, a monitoring channel reported new footage from Bandar Abbas; then Iranian opposition sources and Goldblatt circulated further port footage; and finally Goldblatt posted an image from the strikes. The current claim of an airport shutdown represents an escalation in reported scope, but the source remains a single analyst's X post relayed via a monitoring channel.
The Zioneer reported on June 11, 2026, that Bandar Abbas airport was under attack as Qatari mediation collapsed, and on July 5, 2026, that the airport had resumed operations after a four-month suspension. The new report indicates a fresh shutdown, but the extent of damage or any casualties has not been independently verified, and no official Iranian or Israeli sources have commented.
