More than 30 civilians have been killed in a recent United States strike on southern Iran, according to Iranian government spokesperson Fatemeh Mohajerani. She shared the information on social media platform X, expressing condolences to the victims’ families and pledging full government support for those affected. Mohajerani described southern Iran as the heart and soul of the country and said the government would stand by its people during this difficult time.

The report noted that Iran and the United States have been engaged in a series of retaliatory attacks in recent days. In response to the latest US strike, Iran has withdrawn from a previously signed agreement with Washington. Iranian authorities accused the United States of violating and effectively dismantling the deal by imposing new naval blockades on Iranian ports.

Iran has also declared that it will take control of the entire Strait of Hormuz under wartime conditions, signaling a further escalation in regional tensions.
