US strikes air-defence site on Qeshm Island, Iran, Trump confirms

Corroborated · Qeshm, Iran ·

Explosions were heard on Qeshm Island in southern Iran overnight from Monday into Tuesday, 2-3 November 2026. Trump confirmed a limited US strike on an Iranian anti-aircraft or air-defence facility on the island and called it a minor attack. US officials told the Wall Street Journal that the strikes were defensive and answered Iranian surface-to-air missile fire at US aircraft, and some outlets reported radar and missile-launch targets. Iran's deputy foreign minister described an American attack on Qeshm Island, while Iranian state media reported several explosions with no official cause given.

Details by origin

Each detail, with the independent origins that reported it. An origin is the outlet or channel where a claim first appeared; reposts count once. A row counts no more independent origins than the event does above; where it lists more, it says so. This counts reports: it is not a measure of accuracy, and it does not change the event's status. "Reports differ" means two origins gave values that cannot both be true; it is about that detail, not about whether the incident happened.
