Tasnim: UAE air force strikes Iran's Bandar Abbas

The UAE Air Force launched missile strikes on the port of Bandar Abbas in southern Iran, according to the Iranian agency Fars.

"Sources claim that the territory where the explosion occurred was struck by fighter jets of the United Arab Emirates Air Force," the publication states.
