Single source · Persian Gulf (approximate) ·
A Reuters investigation, as relayed by Iran International, Tasnim News and a Google News aggregator, is reported to find that Iranian strikes on Persian Gulf water and power infrastructure were deliberate. Iran International says Iran and its allies hit water plants, airports, refineries and a nuclear power station, with civilian damage as the aim. Tasnim News, which is partisan and aligned with Iran, says a Reuters visual investigation counts at least 135 Iranian missile and drone strikes on infrastructure in Gulf countries and says Gulf governments wanted to conceal the damage. No primary Reuters text or independent confirmation appears among the claims.

Verification
Single source: 1 independent source.
Sources disagree on:
- Attacker: Iran International attributes the strikes to Iran and its allies, while the other two claims name only Iran.
- Scope: Iran International lists water plants, airports, refineries and a nuclear power station, while Tasnim News cites a count of at least 135 strikes on infrastructure without naming these target types.
- Framing: Tasnim News adds that Gulf governments wanted to conceal the damage, a point the Iran International relay and the Google News copy do not make.
- Attribution: all three claims cite the same Reuters investigation, but none quotes or links the Reuters original, so the reported findings differ across relays with no way to check which matches the source.
