Reports indicate widespread attacks and massive explosions across Iran on Monday morning, heavily targeting IRGC-affiliated facilities and defense industries in Isfahan alongside blasts in Tehran and other major cities.
Multiple sources report that a massive wave of strikes and explosions hit several major Iranian cities on Monday morning, with the heaviest concentration of attacks aimed at military and industrial sites in Isfahan province.
Iran International ایران اینترنشنال, a prominent foreign-based Iranian opposition channel known for its anti-Islamic Republic editorial stance, reported that according to information provided by its audience, "very intense attacks" were launched against targets in Isfahan. Among the primary targets was Amir al-Momenin University in the Sepahan Shahr region, a facility specifically identified by the network as being affiliated with the Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps (IRGC).Beyond the central city, the attacks severely impacted the surrounding urban and industrial areas. Iran International stated that the cities of Dolatabad, Malekshahr, Kaveh, Shahinshahr, Zarrinshahr, Mahmoudabad, and Najafabad were also subjected to strikes. The opposition channel further noted that explosions were heard resounding from Iran's critical heavy industry sectors, specifically citing the Zob Ahan and Mobarakeh Steel complexes, as well as nearby defense industry facilities.
The scope of the attacks appears to be nationwide. أخبار غزة الأن│Warlife, an Arabic-language conflict and regional news monitor, corroborated the reports of "extensive attacks" targeting Isfahan. The channel added that the massive strikes were accompanied by the sound of widespread explosions across several other major urban centers, notably including the capital Tehran, Shiraz, Tabriz, and Khorramabad.
