The U.S. military conducted a new wave of strikes against Iran, hitting approximately 90 targets to degrade the country's ability to threaten commercial shipping in the Strait of Hormuz. U.S. Central Command stated the strikes were in response to recent aggression, including attacks on three commercial oil vessels. This latest action follows earlier strikes that hit over 80 Iranian sites. President Trump had previously declared an interim agreement to end the war with Iran to be 'over.' In response to prior U.S. actions, Iran had launched drone strikes on U.S. bases and shot down an American MQ-9 drone.
