Israeli source confirms: We attacked Iran's large gas facility in Bushehr in the south of the country as part of an attack on national infrastructure.
The attack was coordinated with the US.
South Pars, the world's largest natural gas field (shared with Qatar), forms the absolute cornerstone of Iran's energy system.
It accounts for roughly 70–80% of the country's total natural gas production, depending on recent operational phases and reports.
This gas, in turn, powers the overwhelming majority of Iran's electricity: natural gas fuels about 80–92% of the national grid (with figures commonly cited around 81–90% in recent years), supporting homes, industries, refineries, petrochemical plants, and critical infrastructure nationwide
This extreme concentration makes South Pars far more than a single asset—it's effectively the beating heart of Iran's energy security. A disruption there doesn't remain isolated; it rapidly propagates through the entire system, slashing gas availability, crippling power generation capacity, and triggering widespread blackouts, industrial shutdowns, and acute economic strain
.In short, any significant damage or interruption to South Pars constitutes a direct, systemic blow to Iran's national stability and resilience.
Iranian military officials warned Fars News Agency that Israel’s strike on the Asaluyeh gas field in southern Iran “will not go unanswered” and vowed to target Israeli infrastructure in retaliation.
