Security analyst Yair Goldblatt reported on X that railway lines approximately 10 km from the southern Iranian port city of Bandar Abbas were attacked, as part of the ongoing US campaign against Iranian infrastructure. The report is unverified.
Security analyst Yair Goldblatt reported on X at 17:39 Jerusalem that railway lines about 10 km from Bandar Abbas were attacked, stating that the US is isolating the port city by bombing bridges and transportation routes. The report adds to a series of unverified claims of strikes on infrastructure in southern Iran today.
Earlier today, the Arabic-language channel Abu Saleh reported heavy fire on transportation routes to Bandar Abbas and military installations overnight (08:39 Jerusalem). A long line of tankers was reported stuck near a previously damaged bridge in Bandar Abbas (15:28 Jerusalem). Arab commentators assessed that the US is systematically destroying roads to Bandar Abbas to cut supply lines and isolate the Strait of Hormuz area (11:59 Jerusalem).
As The Zioneer previously reported, Bandar Abbas International Airport was attacked and shut down on July 8, and the city's train station was damaged in earlier US strikes on July 9. The new report of railway lines being hit, if confirmed, would indicate a continued effort to degrade transport links to the strategic southern hub.
The report remains unverified, and no official Iranian or US confirmation has been issued.
