Iran's state-run Tasnim News agency reports that a US missile struck a site near the town of Suza on Qeshm Island in the Strait of Hormuz. The report follows an earlier strike on the coast of the same town, as The Zioneer reported. No details on the target, damage, or casualties are immediately available.
Tonight, Iran's Tasnim news agency reported a second US missile strike near the town of Suza on Qeshm Island, approximately 45 minutes after the first strike on the coast of the same town was reported (as The Zioneer reported at 18:52 Jerusalem). The new report further intensifies the sequence of strikes in the Strait of Hormuz tonight.
The night's events began at 18:30 Jerusalem, when unverified reports of explosions on Qeshm Island surfaced. Within minutes, Tasnim and other Iranian state media reported a US missile strike on the coast of Suza, initially unverified. By 18:52 Jerusalem, The Zioneer confirmed the report, citing Iranian state media. The latest report marks a second strike in the same area, though details remain sparse.
The strikes follow a week of US military action in the Strait of Hormuz. As The Zioneer reported on Wednesday, a large explosion was reported on Lark Island after a US missile launch. On Tuesday, US strikes targeted Iranian military facilities on Qeshm and other locations. Iranian media also reported missile launches from Sirik toward US destroyers earlier this week. The Zioneer has covered these developments in depth.
No information is available on the target of the latest strike, the extent of damage, or any casualties. The reports remain unverified by independent sources.
