TEHRAN, March 29 (Xinhua) -- At least five people were killed and four others injured on Sunday in a U.S.-Israeli strike on a wharf in a port city of Iran's southern Hormozgan Province, the official news agency IRNA reported.

The "terrorist" attack targeted the wharf in Bandar Pol city of Khamir County, the report said, adding that two vessels and a vehicle were also damaged in the strike.

Following the attack, rescuers and firefighters immediately rushed to the scene, and the wounded were hospitalized, said IRNA.

On Feb. 28, Israel and the United States launched joint attacks on Tehran and several other Iranian cities. Iran responded by launching waves of missile and drone strikes targeting Israel and U.S. bases and assets in the Middle East.

According to IRNA, over 200 people have been killed in the U.S. and Israeli strikes in Hormozgan Province since the beginning of the war.
