The US military struck a bridge and an airport, according to unverified reports. The location of the strikes was not specified.
Fresh unverified reports indicate additional US strikes on an airport, adding to the fifth night of American attacks on Iranian infrastructure. The new reports follow earlier accounts of a damaged airport in southeastern Iran, as The Zioneer reported at 23:14 Jerusalem. The location of the latest strikes was not specified.
The thread of reports on the fifth night began at 23:14 Jerusalem with unconfirmed claims of a US strike on the Kohorstan bridge in Bandar Abbas. At the same time, additional reports identified the target as the bridge connecting Bandar Abbas to Shiraz, and Iranian officials confirmed the strike, halting traffic. Concurrently, reports emerged of damage to an airport in southeastern Iran, though the details remained unverified. Subsequent updates specified that the bridge strike caused power outages in the Kohran area, and Iranian officials provided a formal confirmation of the bridge attack. The airport reports have not yet been officially confirmed.
The Zioneer reported earlier on Thursday at 08:50 Jerusalem that the US Army announced strikes on command centers, missile sites, drone facilities, air defense systems, and coastal surveillance installations. On July 9, The Zioneer reported that a senior US official confirmed cruise missile strikes on two railway bridges in northern Iran, marking the first such attack since the April ceasefire.
The status of the latest airport strikes remains unclear. It is not known whether these are new strikes or a reiteration of the earlier airport damage report. The exact location and extent of the damage, as well as any casualties, have not been independently verified.
