Bombs have struck several parts of Iran, according to reports. A desalination plant was bombed during the night to Sunday, as per sources. According to Iranian authorities, a facility on Qeshm Island was hit, affecting drinking water supply in several nearby areas.
Iran's Foreign Minister Seyed Abbas Araghchi accuses the United States of the attack. 'The United States committed an obvious and desperate crime by attacking a desalination plant on Qeshm Island. Water supply in 30 villages has been affected,' Araghchi said.
This could become a real regional war.
He added, 'Attacking Iran's infrastructure is a dangerous step with serious consequences. ' The attack is described as a serious attack on the country's civilian infrastructure by officials. It is still unclear who is behind the attack, analysts note.
The attack has increased tensions in an already strained region, observers say. ' Desalination plants are crucial for large parts of the Middle East, experts note. Similar facilities exist in large parts of the region, such as in Saudi Arabia, Qatar, Bahrain, and the United Arab Emirates.
