A strike carried out by the United States and Israel targeted a railway bridge in Kashan, leaving two people dead and three others injured, according to local officials. The attack hit the Yahya Abad rail bridge, a key transport link in central Iran.
Authorities in Isfahan province confirmed the casualties, stating that emergency teams were deployed to the site following the incident. The strike disrupted transport routes, with officials reporting impacts on nearby infrastructure.
The attack followed an advisory reportedly issued by Israeli forces, warning civilians to avoid train travel for safety reasons. The development comes amid escalating tensions in the region.
In a related escalation, Iran’s major oil export facility on Kharg Island was also reportedly targeted. The island plays a crucial role in the country’s oil exports, handling a significant share of shipments.
The situation has intensified further after Iran moved to close the Strait of Hormuz, a vital global oil route. The latest strikes mark a sharp rise in hostilities, with both sides exchanging strong warnings as the conflict deepens.
