Three Iranian navy members killed in Israeli strike on Bandar Abbas port - Mehr news agency
Three Iranian navy members were killed in an Israeli airstrike on Bandar Abbas port, according to the Mehr news agency. The strike, which occurred on June 19, 2025, is part of the ongoing conflict between Israel and Iran. The Iranian navy has not yet released an official statement on the incident, but the Mehr news agency reported that the strike targeted a military facility in the port city.The strike on Bandar Abbas is the latest in a series of Israeli airstrikes on Iranian military targets. On June 13, Israel launched a cross-border offensive against Iran following a fresh round of hostilities. The Israeli military has said that its air force is currently attacking "Iranian regime military targets in the Tehran area" [1]. The conflict has escalated rapidly, with both sides suffering significant losses. According to the Human Rights Activists group, at least 585 people have been killed and 1,326 others wounded in Israel's offensive in Iran [1]. In the Gaza Strip, more than 30 people have been killed, including 11 waiting for aid in Israeli strikes and gunfire across the territory since the start of the Wednesday [1].
The escalating conflict has had significant economic implications for the region. Israel has announced that it will ease domestic restrictions imposed on its population due to the ongoing war with Iran and will "reopen its economy" [2]. Meanwhile, Iran's supreme leader Ayatollah Ali Khamenei has described the conflict as "unacceptable" and warned that Iran will never surrender [3]. The conflict has also drawn international attention, with Russia and the United States in contact over the situation [4].
The strike on Bandar Abbas comes as Iran's president Masoud Pezeshkian has reached out to Qatar's emir, seeking to address the ongoing conflict [5]. The two leaders have not yet released the details of their correspondence, but the move suggests that Iran is seeking to find a diplomatic solution to the conflict.
The conflict between Israel and Iran has significant implications for the global economy. The region is a major producer of oil and gas, and any disruption to supply could have significant impacts on global energy prices. Additionally, the conflict could lead to further instability in the Middle East, which could have broader economic and political implications.
