The U.S. conducted a new wave of offensive strikes against Iran on Sunday, according to Central Command.
The strikes hit dozens of targets at multiple locations with “precision munitions to degrade Iran’s ability to continue attacking international shipping flowing through the Strait of Hormuz,” CENTCOM said on X.
“CENTCOM forces struck Iranian military air-defense systems, coastal radar sites, missile and drone capabilities, and small boats using U.S. fighter aircraft, naval vessels, one-way attack aerial drones, and one-way attack sea drones for the first time,” CENTCOM said.
The military added that the Strait of Hormuz is a “vital maritime corridor for global trade” and that Iran does not control it.
“U.S. forces are postured and prepared to ensure that freedom of navigation remains available to commercial shipping despite Iran’s continued unwarranted aggression, harassment, threats, and arbitrary declarations,” CENTCOM said.
