The U.S. military initiated a series of strikes against Iran, citing retaliation for Iranian attacks on three commercial vessels in the Strait of Hormuz. U.S. Central Command confirmed the action on Tuesday, describing it as a response to Tehran's "unwarranted, dangerous, and a clear violation of the ceasefire."
A statement from U.S. Central Command declared, "U.S. Central Command forces have begun launching a series of powerful strikes against Iran to impose heavy costs for targeting and attacking commercial shipping." The precise targets of the U.S. strikes remain unconfirmed.
However, Iranian media reported that six projectiles impacted the Taheroui pier area in Sirik, located in southern Iran. This development signifies the first known U.S. military retaliatory action against Iran since late last month, a period that saw multiple days of exchanges between the two nations.
