Iranian state media reported on Saturday that projectiles from what officials called "enemy" forces struck areas around Sirik, a coastal district in southern Iran. Authorities provided few immediate details about the origin of the projectiles, the extent of any damage or casualties, or the timing of the incident.
The report did not identify which actor was responsible and independent verification was not immediately available. Local officials and state outlets used the term "enemy" to describe the source of the projectiles but stopped short of naming a particular country or group.
In response to the incident, Tehran issued a statement saying it was ready to enter dialogue with nations in the region to "foster mutual trust" and "achieve sustainable security." The declaration framed diplomacy as the preferred route to reduce tensions and prevent further escalation along Iran's southern approaches.
Analysts say the announcement underscores Tehran's dual approach of signalling defensive resolve while leaving open diplomatic channels. Details about the Sirik incident remain limited, and there was no immediate comment from foreign governments. Iranian authorities said further information would be provided as investigations continue.
