Two Telegram posts relay an Iranian official announcement that an operational test of warning systems would be held on Kharg Island at 11:00 local time today, and that residents should not be concerned by the sounds. Farsna attributes the announcement to the Kharg district governor, and ME Observer attributes it to the governor of Bushehr province.

One origin has reported this. That is not a sign it is wrong; nobody else has reported it yet. A siren warns of a possible threat; it does not mean anything struck there.
