The United States military has reportedly attacked two bridges in southern Iran, according to Iranian media reports citing provincial authorities. The attacks targeted the Kahurestan and Gariveh bridges in the province of Hormozgan, critical routes connecting the port city of Bandar Abbas with nearby cities such as Chamir and Lar. These bridges were part of key transportation arteries linking the Persian Gulf coast with the interior of the country. According to the semi-official Iranian news agency Fars, the roads between Bandar Abbas and these cities have been completely closed, along with another route in the region. Two civilians were killed and four others injured during the strikes, though exact damage assessments remain unclear. Meanwhile, state-backed media Press TV claimed three bridges were hit in the assault. Verification of these claims is difficult due to the lack of independent confirmation from either side. The attacks come amid ongoing hostilities between the U.S. and Iran, which have escalated over several weeks. On Thursday, the U.S. Central Command announced the resumption of airstrikes against Iran for the sixth consecutive night, starting at 2 p.m. Eastern Time (9:30 p.m. local time in Iran). The stated objective of these operations, according to the command, is to further weaken Iran's military capabilities. This follows threats from U.S. President Donald Trump earlier in the week to expand attacks on Iranian infrastructure, including power plants and bridges. The conflict has intensified significantly since early July, beginning with disputes over control of the Strait of Hormuz, a vital waterway for global energy trade. Earlier in the month, Iran’s Revolutionary Guard had attacked ships in the strait, leading to mutual accusations of violating a framework agreement signed in mid-June aimed at ending the war. However, tensions have continued to rise despite the accord. Recent developments include the first confirmed deaths of U.S. soldiers in Jordan due to Iranian missile and drone attacks, marking a new escalation in the conflict. According to the U.S. Central Command, two American soldiers were killed and one is still missing after defending against Iranian attacks in Jordan. This brings the official count of U.S. service members killed in the war against Iran to 16. The incident has increased pressure on President Trump, who faces domestic criticism over the unpopular war. Trump described the deaths as “very sad” and reiterated his stance that Iran must not acquire nuclear weapons. Meanwhile, the U.S. is reportedly moving additional fighter jets from Germany and the United Kingdom to the Middle East, signaling potential preparations for expanded military operations. In Iran, the toll from U.S. attacks has been severe. Since early July, at least 50 people have died and more than 500 others have been injured, according to statements from the health ministry spokesperson, Hossein Kermanpur. The government typically only reports civilian casualties, while losses among military personnel remain unreported. Recently, ground forces in southwestern Iran reported seven fatalities. The U.S. military has focused its strikes primarily on southern coastal provinces, targeting Iran’s ability to conduct military operations in the Strait of Hormuz. Iran’s supreme leader, Ayatollah Ali Khamenei, has issued warnings of retaliation, stating that the Iranian people and resistance front would provide “unforgettable lessons” to the enemy. His comments reflect growing public anxiety in Tehran, where fears of air raids have risen following recent Israeli airstrikes in June. The situation appears increasingly volatile, with both sides escalating their rhetoric and military actions. Recent reports indicate that Iran has launched attacks on U.S. military bases in Kuwait and Bahrain, as well as on Jordanian territory near the Red Sea. Additionally, there have been explosions in Saudi Arabia, suggesting a broader regional impact. While the U.S. military has not disclosed specific targets of its strikes, Iranian state television reported detonations near Sirik, close to the Strait of Hormuz, and in Bandar Abbas. The Iranian news agency Fars also noted renewed attacks on bridges in Hormozgan province, with Press TV reporting at least three civilian deaths and eight injuries in the area. As the conflict continues to escalate, concerns grow over the possibility of a wider war. Experts warn that the situation could spiral into a full-scale conflict, even if neither side desires it. With the Strait of Hormuz once again nearly closed to shipping traffic, the economic and strategic implications are profound. Both nations appear entrenched in their positions, with little indication of diplomatic efforts to resolve the crisis.

Frankfurter Allgemeine (FAZ)Neovisan🔒SredinaČinjenice 85Objektivnost 75prekjučerU članku se izvještava o eskalaciji napetosti između Sjedinjenih Država i Irana zbog Ormuškog moreuza, pri čemu se obje strane međusobno optužuju za napad na civilnu infrastrukturu. Američka vojska tvrdi da je ciljala iranske nadzorne objekte, podzemna skladišta oružja i drugu vojnu infrastrukturu tijekom sedme uzastopne noći napada. Iranski državni mediji, međutim, tvrde da su američki udari oštetili civilne strukture, uključujući mostove u južnom Iranu, što je rezultiralo žrtvama. Izvještaji spominju eksplozije u Saudijskoj Arabiji i Jordanu, koje su domaćin američkih vojnih baza. Iranska revolucionarna garda tvrdi da je oborila američku bespilotnu letjelicu i izvijestila o dva cisterna za naftu koji su gorjeli u Ormuškom moreuzu, iako su SAD odbacile te tvrdnje. Obje strane upozoravaju Iran na daljnju eskalaciju, prijeteći širim operacijama ako se nastave ofenzivni napadi.

Zašto objektivnost (70): The tone is somewhat alarmist, using phrases like 'der Konflikt ... außer Kontrolle zu geraten' and emphasizing the threat of further escalation. The article presents the conflict as increasingly dangerous but does not balance perspectives from both sides equally.
Der SpiegelNeovisanProgresivnoČinjenice 80Objektivnost 70prije 4 danaPrema iranskim medijskim izvještajima, američke vojne snage napale su dva mosta u južnom Iranu tijekom nedavnih zračnih napada na provinciju Hormuzgan. Mostovi Kahurestan i Gariveh, smješteni na glavnim putevima u provinciji, pogođeni su, što je dovelo do potpunog zatvaranja cesta između lučkog grada Bandar-e Abbas i obližnjih gradova kao što su Chamir i Lar. Dvije su osobe poginule, a četiri druge su ozlijeđene u napadima, iako su detalji o specifičnim štetama još uvijek nejasni. Državna televizijska kuća Press TV izvijestila je da su na meti tri mosta, ali te tvrdnje se ne mogu neovisno provjeriti. Most Kahurestan povezuje Bandar-e Abbas sa Širazom i smatra se rutom između obale Perzijskog zaljeva i unutrašnjosti Irana.
Procjena pristranosti (Progresivno): U članku se stavljaju akcije SAD-a kao dio šire strategije slabljenja iranskih vojnih sposobnosti, u skladu s narativima koji prikazuju američke intervencije kao agresivne i ekspanzionističke.
Zašto činjenice (80): The article confirms the US military's targeting of bridges in southern Iran, referencing Fars and Press TV. It aligns with other reports on the escalation and includes details about the timing and intent of the strikes. However, it lacks some contextual background compared to other articles.
Zašto objektivnost (70): While generally neutral, the article emphasizes the potential impact of the strikes on infrastructure and energy routes, which may subtly highlight the strategic significance of the conflict. It doesn't provide a full picture of diplomatic efforts or international reactions.
Deutsche Welle (Deutsch)Državni / javniSredinaČinjenice 80Objektivnost 65jučerČlanak izvješćuje o nedavnim vojnim akcijama između Sjedinjenih Država i Irana, naglašavajući američke zračne napade na iranske objekte kao odgovor na napade na američke trupe u Jordanu.
Procjena pristranosti (Sredina): Članak predstavlja uravnotežen prikaz i američkih i iranskih perspektiva, citirajući službene izjave obje strane bez otvorene naklonosti jednoj strani.
Zašto činjenice (80): This article provides information from both US and Iranian sources, including quotes from CENTCOM and Tasnim. It mentions casualties among US troops in Jordan and aligns with other reports on the escalation. However, it omits some details present in other articles, such as civilian casualties report
Zašto objektivnost (65): The language has a slightly more confrontational tone, especially when describing the US actions as 'bestrafen' (punish) and quoting Trump’s reaction. This suggests a slight bias towards portraying the US as responding to provocation rather than presenting a neutral account.
Frankfurter Allgemeine (FAZ)Neovisan🔒SredinaČinjenice 80Objektivnost 65prekjučer Liveblog Iranski rat: Iran: Jeste li uništili američke zrakoploveKonflikt između Sjedinjenih Država i Irana oko Hormuškog moreuza eskalira, s obje strane razmjenjuju napade. Američka vojska je izvršila zračne napade na iranske nadzorne objekte, podzemna skladišta oružja i drugu vojnu infrastrukturu, prema američkim dužnosnicima. Iranski državni mediji, međutim, izvijestili su o napadima na civilnu infrastrukturu. Kao odmazdu, Iran je pokrenuo napade protiv zaljevskih država, uključujući Kuvajt i Bahrein, uz izvještaje o eksplozijama u Saudijskoj Arabiji i Jordanu, u kojima se nalaze američke vojne baze. Iranska državna televizija Press TV izvijestila je o detonacijama u blizini Hormuškog moreuza i u Bandar Abbasu, pozivajući se na žrtve. U međuvremenu, iranska Revolucijska garda je tvrdila da je oborila američku bespilotnu letjelicu u blizini Bushehr i pucala na dva naftna tankera u moreuzu, iako je američki tanker demantirao ove tvrdnje. Iran je upozorio na ulazak u fazu širih ofenzivnih operacija ako američki vojni avioni nastave s napadima na Kuvaj i The Wall Street Journal izvijestio je da se američki borbeni zrakoplovi pripremaju za eskalaciju u regiji i šire svoje vojno prisustvo u Europi.

Zašto objektivnost (65): The article maintains a somewhat neutral tone overall but leans toward reporting the US perspective more prominently, particularly in its emphasis on US military operations and the denial of civilian casualties. There is less focus on the broader geopolitical implications.
