Washington Announces New Wave of Military Strikes Against Iranian Targets

The US Central Command has announced the execution of a series of precision military strikes targeting strategic Iranian locations, aiming to degrade the military capabilities used to threaten commercial shipping in the Strait of Hormuz. The command clarified that the operations targeted missile launch sites, drone facilities, and naval installations located near coastal areas. These intensive attacks, which lasted for several hours, coincided with the imposition of a naval blockade, in a move Washington asserts is intended to protect civilian ships and undermine ongoing threats to international navigation in the region.
