Security analyst Yair Goldblatt shared additional material on X early Thursday morning, the latest in a series of updates he has posted regarding the US strikes on Kish Island. The post comes after a night of heavy strikes in the region, as reported by multiple sources.
As The Zioneer reported overnight, the sequence of events began with explosions reported in the city of Bushehr and on Qeshm Island (Thu 03:12 Jerusalem). Iranian news agency Tasnim then claimed missiles had struck residential areas on Qeshm Island. Subsequent reports indicated that the target was an Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps facility in a residential area. Iranian sources later reported that a family was trapped under rubble, and then confirmed that two parents and a child were killed. Iran also published a photograph of a strike site on Qeshm Island. All reports remain unverified by independent sources.
The United States has been conducting sustained strikes on Iranian targets in the Strait of Hormuz since June, as The Zioneer has reported, targeting IRGC naval infrastructure and command centers. The campaign has intensified in recent weeks, with strikes on Qeshm Island and other strategic locations. Yair Goldblatt has been a consistent source of open-source intelligence on the strikes, previously posting footage and analysis.
The content of Goldblatt's latest post has not been independently verified. The casualty figures reported by Iranian sources remain unconfirmed, and the full extent of the damage is unclear.
