Explosions heard in southeastern Iran amid possible US attack fears

Several explosions were heard in Konarak County in Iran's southeastern Sistan and Baluchestan province, raising concerns over a possible US attack, Iranian media reported on Thursday. Tasnim News Agency said the blasts were heard in the vicinity of the coastal county, but no official information has been released about the source or whether they caused casualties or damage.

Regional Tensions

The explosions come as tensions between the US and Iran continue to escalate, with both sides exchanging strikes since the breakdown of a Pakistani-brokered memorandum of understanding signed last month. The US and Israel launched a joint offensive against Iran in late February, with Iran retaliating with strikes on Gulf countries hosting US assets.

Uncertainty and Escalation

No official confirmation has been provided on whether the explosions were caused by US strikes, military exercises or other incidents. The situation in the region remains volatile as both sides continue military operations and diplomatic efforts remain stalled.
