According to i24NEWS correspondent Amichai Stein, a headquarters of Iran's Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps was bombed by the United States in Ahvaz, Khuzestan province. No details on casualties, damage, or the timing of the strike are yet available.
A new report from i24NEWS correspondent Amichai Stein identifies the United States as the party responsible for the strike on an Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps (IRGC) headquarters in Ahvaz, Khuzestan province. The report, which is unverified by independent sources, marks the latest in a series of developments reported early Thursday morning.
The sequence of events in Ahvaz began at approximately 02:20 Jerusalem time, with initial reports of explosions. Iranian state television subsequently confirmed violent blasts in the city, followed by reports of a fire and additional explosions. By later dispatches, Iranian media identified the targeted site as an intelligence headquarters and reported that the facility was hit in multiple strikes. The current report now specifies the target as an IRGC headquarters and attributes the attack to the United States.
The source of the information has evolved from Iranian Telegram channels and state media to a named journalist, though independent verification remains lacking. Ahvaz has been a previous target of reported U.S. strikes; as The Zioneer reported on July 23, an IRGC base in southern Ahvaz was reportedly bombed. The broader context includes the ongoing direct kinetic conflict between the United States and the IRGC since mid-2026.
No details on casualties, damage, or the exact timing of the strike have been confirmed. The U.S. military has not commented, and there is no official Iranian confirmation. The report remains singular and unverified.
