Tehran, MINA – One person was killed and several others injured after the US army attacked a military area southwest of Tabriz in northwestern Iran, Mehr News Agency reported Monday.
The crisis management department of Iran’s East Azerbaijan province said the explosion heard in the city was linked to the attack on the military site.
As a result, one person was killed, and a number of others were injured in the attack, it added.
This comes after the US informed Israel that it plans to intensify its military campaign against Iran over the coming days, the Israeli public broadcaster KAN said on Sunday.

In the last 10 days, US attacks have focused on southern Iran. The attacks on Tabriz and Urmia, in northern Iran, are the first outside the southern part since the latest escalation began around 10 days ago.
The US has escalated attacks against Iran in recent days, with Iran retaliating with strikes targeting facilities and bases it says are used by the US military in several regional countries.
The exchange of fire between the two countries comes despite a Pakistan-brokered memorandum of understanding they signed in June to end their war and reach a lasting peace agreement.[]
