BREAKING: US Clobbers Iran With New Strikes

U.S. forces launched another round of strikes against Iran on Wednesday, hitting Iranian military targets along the Strait of Hormuz, according to a U.S. official.

The operation marked the second straight day of American military action against Iran as Washington ramps up its response to what officials say are Tehran’s continued attacks on commercial vessels moving through the critical shipping lane.

Wednesday’s strikes were broader than previous operations, the U.S. official said.

The targets included Iranian coastal radar sites, anti-ship missile positions, and air defense systems designed to support military operations near the Strait of Hormuz. The strikes come after President Donald Trump warned of an escalation at NATO’s annual summit on Wednesday.
