Iran's Tasnim agency, citing emergency services, said at least 15 people were injured in overnight strikes, with one person hospitalized and no fatalities reported. Fourteen of the wounded were said to be in Khuzestan Province and one in Tehran, though independent verification was not immediately possible. The attacks mark the first heavy Iran–Israel exchanges since an April ceasefire, with Israel reportedly launching counterstrikes after Iran fired missiles late on Sunday.
