Iran says seven people were killed in the latest round of US strikes, as attacks reportedly continued for a sixth straight night. According to reports cited by Iranian media, explosions were heard and infrastructure in the country’s south was among the targets.
The reported strikes focused on key transport and communications links, including bridges, rail lines and communications infrastructure. The latest developments point to a broadening pattern of attacks beyond isolated military sites and add to concerns about further disruption inside Iran.
Tehran responded with a warning that the war would "spread," signaling a harder public stance as tensions deepen. The exchange comes at a moment when both sides appear to be entrenching their positions rather than stepping back from confrontation.
With repeated strikes and rising casualties, the conflict appears to be entering a more dangerous phase. The latest reports underscore the risk of wider regional instability as infrastructure damage and threats of escalation continue to mount.
