Iranian official sources say Sirik, in Iran's southern Hormozgan province, was hit Thursday by what they called "an enemy" strike, the state news agency IRNA reported, according to The Jerusalem Post, citing Reuters.

IRNA said the strike was military in nature. It gave no details on damage or casualties and did not say who carried it out.

Earlier this week, Iranian state media claimed the Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps had carried out strikes destroying "enemy navigation systems" on Didamar island. Three sources with knowledge of the matter later confirmed to Reuters that Iran had attacked ship navigation systems on Didamar.

In Israel on Thursday, Yashar party leader Gadi Eisenkot met Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu for a security and diplomatic briefing that lasted more than two hours.
