Report: Strike on Iran port kills five, damages vessels Iran’s Fars news agency reported that five people were killed and four others wounded in a strike on a pier in Bandar Khamir in the southern province of Hormozgan. The report said two vessels and a vehicle were damaged in the attack by US-Israeli forces. The Israeli military earlier said that another wave of strikes across Iran had been completed, targeting weapons storage and production sites as well as air defence systems.
