A US attack on Iran's Shalamcheh border crossing with Iraq killed at least two people and wounded 11 others on Thursday, according to Iranian state media. The strike was part of a wave of US assaults that have targeted sites across Iran for the 12th consecutive night. Other strikes were reported in the cities of Bushehr, Ahvaz, and Andimeshk.
The Shalamcheh crossing is a key entry point between Iran and Iraq. The latest attacks add to a growing number of casualties and damage over the past 12 nights. The US has not officially commented on the specific strikes. The ongoing assaults mark a significant escalation in tensions between the two countries.
The strikes come amid a broader conflict that has seen repeated US bombings of Iranian positions. The exact targets and the full extent of the damage remain unclear. International reactions have been mixed, with some countries calling for restraint. The situation continues to develop as further reports emerge.
