TEHRAN, Nov. 9 (Xinhua) -- Iran's southern Qeshm Island came under U.S. strikes Sunday night which targeted a number of locations but caused no damage to the residential and commercial areas as well as vital and service infrastructure on the island, the state-run IRIB news agency reported on Monday.

The targets hit were outside the residential and commercial areas, Hormozgan province's Deputy Governor Ahmad Nafisi was quoted as saying. The situation on the island remained under control, with all relief, service, and executive agencies in a state of high alert, he added.

The official news agency IRNA reported on Sunday night that four explosions were heard on Qeshm Island, with some locations apparently bombed. ■
