๐บ๐ธ๐ฎ๐ทโก๏ธ- Explosions reported in Chabahar, southern Iran.
๐บ๐ธ๐ฎ๐ทโก๏ธ- During the US attack on Chabahar, southern Iran, earlier today, the US has for the third time targeted the Chabahar port control tower, although this time the tower has reportedly collapsed.
Notably, Chabahar is Iran's only oceanic commercial port that doesn't require entering the Strait of Hormuz. The port is on Iran far south eastern coast, in the Gulf of Oman and allows ships to enter the port from the Gulf of Oman and Indian ocean. Due to its proximity to Pakistan, as we have seen a single ship do, it allows ships to enter Pakistani waters from the Indian Ocean, outside the US naval blockade area, and follow the Pakistani coastline, where the US forces cannot touch before reaching the port, thus bypassing the blockade.
