“Iran desalination plant in the Strait of Hormuz out of service following strikes”
VERIFIED BY REFERENCE
None of the cited Wikipedia sources mention an Iranian desalination plant in the Strait of Hormuz or its operational status. The evidence only references military strikes against Iranian targets in 2026 and general geographical information about the strait, which does not corroborate the specific claim about a desalination plant being out of service.
