SEATTLE (Oil Monster):Fresh airstrikes by the United States Central Command and Israel have targeted critical gas infrastructure in Iran, intensifying regional tensions despite ongoing diplomatic signals. The latest strikes reportedly hit facilities in Isfahan Province and the southwestern city of Khorramshahr.
Iranian media stated that a natural gas administration building and a pressure reduction station in Isfahan sustained damage, with nearby residential areas also affected. In Khorramshahr, a projectile struck a pipeline supplying a power plant, causing material damage but no casualties. Authorities confirmed that electricity supply remained stable due to rapid response measures.
Separately, strikes in Tabriz reportedly killed at least six civilians and injured several others, underscoring the growing humanitarian impact of the conflict. According to CENTCOM, over 9,000 targets, including ships, missile factories, and military installations, have been hit since operations began.
Despite Donald Trump claiming progress in peace talks, military operations continue under “Operation Epic Fury.” Iran has warned of immediate retaliation, raising fears of broader conflict and prolonged disruption to regional energy supplies.
