At least two people were killed and several wounded in US strikes on Iran, according to unverified reports. Iranian state television reported a power outage at Iranshahr airport in Sistan and Baluchestan province following the strikes, with no casualties there. The US reportedly targeted Iranian missiles and drones.
Unverified reports early Friday morning (Jerusalem time) indicate that US strikes on Iran have killed at least two people and wounded several others, with a power outage at Iranshahr airport in Sistan and Baluchestan province. The strikes reportedly targeted Iranian missiles and drones. This development follows the earlier confirmed strike on the same airport on Thursday evening, which Iran officially acknowledged.
On Thursday, Jul 16, at 22:56 Jerusalem, The Zioneer first reported unverified attacks on Iranshahr airport. Minutes later, video footage of the aftermath emerged, and within the same hour, Iranian officials confirmed the strike. The confirmation upgraded the source quality from unverified reports to state acknowledgment.
The Zioneer has documented weeks of US strikes on Iran, including a second wave on Jun 11, strikes on a petrochemical plant in Mahshahr and Ahvaz airport on Jul 13, and a third consecutive night of strikes on Jul 14 that targeted air defenses, missile storage, and drone facilities in southern Iran.
The reports of at least two deaths and the power outage at Iranshahr airport remain unverified. It is unclear whether the power outage is a direct result of the strikes or a secondary effect. The full extent of damage and casualties has not been independently confirmed.
