The U.S. Central Command said it opened another wave of strikes against Iran tonight at 22:00 Jerusalem time, the seventh consecutive night of operations. The strikes aim to further degrade Iran's military capabilities, in accordance with the commander-in-chief's directive, according to CENTCOM.
The U.S. Central Command (CENTCOM) announced tonight that it had begun a new wave of precision strikes against military targets in Iran, marking the seventh consecutive night of operations. The strikes opened at 15:00 Eastern Time (22:00 Jerusalem) and are described as part of a sustained campaign to degrade Iran's military capabilities, directed by the president as commander-in-chief.
The seventh wave follows six previous nights of strikes that have targeted coastal surveillance radar, air defense systems, naval infrastructure, and drone capabilities. As The Zioneer has reported, the campaign has expanded in scope over the past week, with CENTCOM completing operations against dozens of sites across Iran. The Pentagon has described the strikes as self-defense measures in response to continued Iranian aggression.
It remains unclear whether the seventh wave represents a new phase of the campaign or a continuation of the same operational tempo. No immediate casualty figures or damage assessments were released by CENTCOM. The announcement did not specify which targets were hit in tonight's strikes.
