The seventh night of consecutive U.S. airstrikes against Iran has resulted in at least three deaths and eight injuries. The attacks, which occurred in the southern province of Hormozgan, struck vital communication infrastructure, including the Shahid Mirzaei tunnel on the Bandar Abรกs-Hajiabad road and two bridges. Local authorities confirmed the casualties and stated that further information would be released after data collection and on-site investigations are complete. Iranian media also reported explosions in several cities across the country, including Yazd, Lar, and Ahvaz, as well as in coastal areas near the Strait of Hormuz. This latest wave of attacks brings the total number of fatalities to at least 38, with over 400 injured, according to Iran's Health Ministry. In response to the ongoing U.S. bombardments, Iran has been launching missiles and drones daily against U.S. interests in various Middle Eastern countries, including Kuwait, Bahrain, Jordan, and Qatar, escalating regional tensions.

At least three people died and eight were injured after the attacks on several points in the province.
