Iranian state media said that an explosion was heard in the southwestern Iranian city of Bushehr on Sunday, but the exact location of the explosion was not specified. Relevant news media said Israel attacked the region. CNN has reached out to the Israeli military for comment. Bushehr is home to Iran's only operating nuclear power plant. The port city is close to several Gulf capitals around the Persian Gulf. The Fars news agency said the targets of the attack were at two locations in the city, but it did not mention whether the nuclear power plant was attacked. International Atomic Energy Agency Director General Rafael Grossi warned last week that if the Bushehr nuclear power plant were to be directly attacked, it would cause a “massive release of radioactive material” and affect people within hundreds of kilometers of the nuclear power plant. Over the past week, both Israel and the US have launched attacks on Iran's nuclear facilities. Meanwhile, according to Iran's state media Mel News Agency quoting the Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps of Iran, two military areas in the central Iranian city of Yazd have been attacked by Israel. CNN's geolocated video shows smoke rising from the IRGC Shahid Saduji military camp in Yazd.
