Two Iranian civilians were wounded by shrapnel during US strikes on the outskirts of Minab, south of Bandar Abbas, according to a Persian-language channel. The injured were evacuated to Minab Hospital. President Trump separately stated that Israel is not involved in the ongoing strikes on Iran.
At around midnight local time on June 10, a location in Kargan, south of Minab in Hormozgan province, was struck five times — the first reported strike in what Persian-language channels later described as an ongoing American operation focused on southern Iran. By 21:50 UTC, those same channels reported strikes at seven distinct points in the south and, shortly after, that injured civilians had been located at the scene in Minab. The latest development, reported by a Persian-language channel shortly after 23:30 UTC, states that two civilians were wounded by shrapnel and evacuated to Minab Hospital.
The thread began at 21:50 UTC with The Zioneer's first report: a Persian-language channel said a point in Kargan, south of Minab, was hit five times just after midnight, alongside explosions near Bushehr. Within minutes, the same channel reported strikes at seven distinct southern locations, then that injured people were at the Minab scene — initially unverified. The latest report names two shrapnel-wounded civilians evacuated to a hospital, adding specificity to the earlier injury claim. Source credibility has remained stable throughout: all reports in this thread originate from a single Persian-language channel and remain unverified by official Iranian, US, or Israeli sources — no corroboration from a second channel or an on-record statement has yet emerged.
President Trump has stated that Israel is not involved in the ongoing strikes, as The Zioneer reported at 23:28 UTC. Israeli security sources had already distanced Jerusalem from Washington's kinetic response, per The Zioneer's earlier article. The White House denied involvement in the Israeli strikes on June 8, and Fox News reported, at 22:31 UTC, that Trump's next targets could include civilian infrastructure such as bridges and power plants. These context elements frame the current strikes as an American operation.
What remains open: the Persian-language channel's report of two injured civilians is the only source for the casualty count; no official Iranian emergency service, hospital, or military statement has confirmed the number, the nature of injuries, or the type of munitions used. It is also not clear whether civilians were inside a structure, in a vehicle, or outdoors when struck. US and Israeli military confirmation has not been published.
