The United States attacked the Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps headquarters in the city of Saravan, in southeastern Iran's Sistan and Baluchestan province, overnight, according to reports from Iranian Telegram channels citing video footage. No details on casualties or damage are yet available.
New footage posted early Tuesday morning, Jul 14, shows a US airstrike in the city of Saravan, in Iran's Sistan and Baluchestan province, according to reports. Videos circulating on Iranian Telegram channels overnight claim to show a strike on the Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps (IRGC) headquarters in Saravan. The clip has not been independently verified, and there is no immediate comment from US or Iranian officials. No details on casualties or damage are yet available.
This development follows a series of earlier reports on US strikes in Saravan. At 05:39 Jerusalem on Monday, Jul 13, The Zioneer reported initial claims of a US airstrike in Saravan (version 7), followed within the same minute by a report specifying the target as the IRGC headquarters and the city's airport (version 8). At 05:39 Jerusalem again, another version reported new footage of the strike (version 9). These reports, all from a single security-focused the source, have remained unverified throughout the thread. The corroboration has not expanded beyond that initial source.
As The Zioneer reported on Jul 9, the US previously struck an IRGC ground forces base in Zahedan. On Jun 27, Iranian opposition activists claimed a US strike on an IRGC ammunition depot in southern Iran. Both reports remain unverified and based on single sources. The current campaign also includes strikes on air defense systems, coastal radar, and missile sites across southern and central Iran, as reported by CENTCOM and covered by The Zioneer.
What remains unverified: the precise target (IRGC headquarters vs. airport vs. general airstrike), the extent of damage and casualties, and any official confirmation from US or Iranian authorities. The single-source nature of the reporting leaves significant uncertainty about the scope of the operation in Saravan.
