Two missiles reported to have hit Iran's Qeshm Island after aircraft noise
Iranian state media said two projectiles struck the Suza area of Qeshm Island, with authorities awaiting further details on damage.
Iran's state news agency IRNA said local witnesses reported two missiles hitting the Suza area of Qeshm Island in the country's south after hearing an aircraft overhead. Semi-official Tasnim news agency added that initial reports confirmed the strikes but provided no official assessment of damage, noting that more information would be released once authorities verify the incident.
The reports came amid ongoing diplomatic talks between the United States and Iran. Qatar’s International Media Office rejected claims that the two sides had failed to reach a cease-fire agreement, calling the allegations false and misleading, and said the Qatari prime minister affirmed that negotiations continue with both Washington and Tehran.
Iranian state media also reported that the Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps shot down a U.S. MQ-9 drone over Qeshm Island hours after the explosions, following a similar claim that an MQ-1 drone was downed the previous day.
