Blasts shake southern Iranian coastline

Shafaq News- Tehran (Updated at 23:41)

Explosions were heard near Iran’s southern port of Bandar Abbas and the coastal city of Konarak, local media reported on Monday, hours after the United States reimposed a blockade on Iranian ports and coastal areas.

Tasnim News Agency cited four powerful blasts near Larak Island, while four missiles fell near Konarak. A US fighter jet was also seen flying over the area.

No official explanation has been provided for the source of the explosions.

President Donald Trump revealed, in a radio interview, that the United States would strike Iran "very hard" this night and the following night, warning Tehran there was "not a damn thing they can do about it."

Earlier today, US Central Command (CENTCOM) disclosed another wave of strikes against Iran, targeting multiple sites with precision-guided munitions. Iran later responded by targeting US facilities in Kuwait, Oman, Jordan, and Bahrain.
