US's Wednesday strikes on Iran damaged drinking water facility near Strait of Hormuz
An Iranian reservoir for drinking water located near the Strait of Hormuz was reportedly struck by the US earlier this week following renewed strikes on the region, Iran’s semi-official news agency, Mehr News reported on Wednesday.
Mehr had cited a local official claiming that water was cut off to about 20,000 residents of nearby towns and villages due to the strikes.
Additionally, the outlet posted images of the destroyed drinking water reservoir, as well as photos of munition fragments that a CNN report claimed appeared to be from a US bomb, according to experts.
Around the time of the strikes, the US Central Command (CENTCOM) said in a post on X/Twitter that it had conducted strikes near the strait with “precision munitions from the US Air Force and Navy fighter jets.”
