Strikes have hit a desalination plant on Iran’s Qeshm island in the strategic Strait of Hormuz, putting it out of service, Iranian media reported on Tuesday.
“One of the desalination plants on Qeshm Island was targeted… and is now completely out of service, as it is not possible to repair it in the short term,” the ISNA news agency reported, quoting health ministry official Mohsen Farhadi. It was not immediately clear when the attack took place.
Similarly, US-Israeli strikes damaged a Shia Muslim mosque and religious site in northwest Iran.
State television said the building of the Grand Husseiniya, a hall for Shia gatherings and mourning ceremonies, “was damaged following the enemy’s morning attack on the Ferdowsi street” in the city of Zanjan. It added that “parts of the dome and minarets were damaged.”
Likewise, the strikes hit one of the largest pharmaceutical companies which produces anesthetic and cancer drugs, the Iranian government said. (AFP)
