The U.S. Central Command said it completed its latest significant wave of strikes against Iran early Friday, using fighter jets, drones, and warships to hit dozens of military targets including coastal surveillance sites, air defense systems, logistics infrastructure, and naval capabilities.
The U.S. Central Command (CENTCOM) confirmed early Friday that it has completed what it described as the 'latest significant wave' of strikes against Iran. The operation employed fighter jets, drones, and warships, launching precision munitions that struck dozens of Iranian military targets, including coastal surveillance sites, air defense systems, logistics infrastructure, and naval capabilities. The announcement follows an earlier CENTCOM statement at 05:39 Jerusalem today announcing the wave, as The Zioneer reported. This is the latest in a sustained campaign of U.S. strikes against Iranian military assets that began in June, targeting capabilities the Pentagon says pose a threat to U.S. forces and commercial shipping. The current wave is described as 'significant' but did not specify whether it marks a new phase in the campaign.
