IRNA reported a loud explosion on Qeshm Island in the Strait of Hormuz, and Fars reported multiple explosions in Sirik and Minab County; Hormozgan officials said the sounds came from the sea, and IRNA later said 'several areas' of Sirik were hit by 'enemy' projectiles.
Why it matters
The strikes on Iran's Hormuz coast came hours after the tanker and missile exchanges, suggesting US operations extended to shore-side targets.
