The United States launches another wave of airstrikes deep inside Iran, targeting Iranshahr Airport in southeastern Iran and a key transport bridge in Bandar-e Khamir, according to Iranian state media. Iranian authorities say the airport strike damages electrical facilities, a fuel tank and causes a power outage, while one civilian is reported injured. Iranian media also says the bridge attack kills seven people and injures nine others, disrupting a major logistics route connecting Bandar Abbas and Shiraz.    

The conflict between Iran and the United States has entered a dangerous new phase after Iran's IRGC announced the launch of Phase 4 of its "Nasr 2" operation, claiming coordinated attacks on multiple American military assets across the Gulf. According to the IRGC, the latest offensive targeted key US military installations, including the headquarters of the US Fifth Fleet in Bahrain and American military infrastructure linked to fuel and logistics operations. Iranian officials also claimed drone strikes were carried out against hangars housing US F-18 fighter aircraft at Jordan's Al-Azraq Air Base. Meanwhile, US Central Command has announced a fresh round of strikes on Iranian military sites, stating that the operations are intended to degrade Iran's capability to threaten commercial shipping and regional security. Washington has also intensified maritime pressure by restoring restrictions around Iranian ports, further escalating tensions. WATCH
