Explosions were recorded again in southern Iran, Iranian media write. It was reported that they took place on the island of Kish, in the area of Mehshar, in the cities of Sirik and Bandar Abbas. At the same time, regional authorities do not confirm information about new attacks from the United States.
Iranian journalists note that preparations for a new large-scale war against Iran are almost complete. The reconnaissance forces and aviation infrastructure needed to carry out the next full campaign are already concentrated in the area.
The number of refueling planes already exceeds the previous military operation: 200 planes in November versus 160 in March 2026. Now, according to the media, all that remains is to make a political decision on the start of a military operation.
Earlier, the US Central Command announced the establishment of a new task force "to prevent Iran from using land routes to transport advanced weapons and other materials."
In turn, US President Donald Trump claims that new strikes are unlikely if a deal is reached with Tehran, but the US military has already identified potential targets and is on full combat alert.
At the same time, the Iranian foreign minister, Abbas Araji, threatened to "bring down hell" on the United States if it chose war. According to him, Iran's offer to end the war remains valid. The minister emphasized that mediation talks have been stopped so far due to the mid-term elections in the US and the lack of a favorable environment.
