The US military has reportedly struck several bridges in southern Iran over the past hour, according to a single source, extending a campaign that has seen seven consecutive nights of attacks on Iranian infrastructure. The report, received at 01:32 Jerusalem, comes after a busy night of strikes: as The Zioneer reported earlier, i24NEWS cited a source familiar with the details that seven bridges and train stations were hit on Friday evening, and CENTCOM completed a wave of strikes targeting bridges, the Bandar Abbas railway station, Iranshahr airport, and a naval observation tower in Chabahar at 23:49 Jerusalem.
The latest report does not specify the exact number of bridges or whether there were casualties. The US military has not yet commented. Separately, Iranian reports at 01:31 Jerusalem described two bridges and a tunnel being struck overnight, without naming the attacker, offering a different account of the night's activity. The campaign, which began in late June, has focused on cutting transportation links in southern Iran, with previous strikes reported in Kurdistan province and northern Iran as well.
