Major Strike Hits Iran’s Key Armored Base in Ahvaz
Reports indicate a major airstrike has destroyed the base of Iran’s 92nd Armored Division in Ahvaz, a critical southwestern hub for the country’s tanks and ground forces coordination.
Video circulating online shows large explosions along a highway, with fireballs, thick smoke, and civilian vehicles fleeing as secondary blasts occur near Persian road signs.
The MOSSADil account, which focuses on Israel-related news and commentary, posted the footage with the claim that the baseβhome to armored unitsβwas taken out, marking a potential serious setback for Iran’s conventional military strength.
Witness accounts and regional updates from March 8 onward link explosions in northern Ahvaz districts to the 92nd Division area, amid ongoing U.S.-Israeli operations targeting IRGC and army sites to degrade regime capabilities.
No official confirmation from U.S., Israeli, or Iranian sources has emerged on the full extent of damage or casualties. Earlier assessments suggest nearby IRGC drone facilities took the brunt of related hits, based on satellite imagery showing runway damage.
The strike fits a pattern of escalating coalition efforts against Iranian military infrastructure in the southwest.
