The United States and Iran traded drone and missile strikes on Friday, as Tehran announced it had targeted American assets across the region, in the biggest escalation since the two foes resumed their conflict.
A month after the two sides agreed a memorandum of understanding aimed at ending their war, Iran accused US forces of hitting civilian infrastructure, including an airport, a railway station and two bridges.
Iranian state media reported at least eight people dead and 20 wounded.
It signalled an apparent expansion of American strikes with a focus on Iranian infrastructure, which US President Donald Trump has previously threatened to hit, but there was no immediate comment from US officials.
The war began on February 28 with deadly US-Israeli strikes on Iran, which retaliated by effectively closing the Strait of Hormuz and launching attacks on Israel and American interests across the Gulf.
