The United States military has initiated strikes on targets within Iran, citing attempted attacks on shipping as justification.

At least two people were killed and several others injured while attending a wedding ceremony in a US attack on Bandar Kuhestak in Sirik county, according to Iranian media.

However, the deputy governor of Iran's Kerman province stated that a projectile landed outside Jiroft airport's runway and that the situation is under control, with no casualties or damage to airport infrastructure reported.
