Two people have been killed in a US strike on Iran’s Shalamcheh border crossing with Iraq, Iran’s Mehr News Agencyreported, citing an Iranian official.

Valiollah Hayati, deputy governor for security and law enforcement in southwestern Khuzestan province, said the area around the passenger terminal at the border crossing was targeted.

Hayati added that a separate US missile strike targeted an area near the city of Andimeshk in Khuzestan, adding that further details would be announced later.

The attack followed fresh US strikes across southwestern and southern Iran, as CENTCOM said operations would continue to degrade Iran’s ability to threaten civilian mariners and commercial vessels in regional waters.
