The US military struck Iranian military targets overnight for the 12th consecutive night, ordered by President Donald Trump, according to Arab media reports. The latest wave follows earlier reports of two killed at a border crossing near Iraq, as The Zioneer reported earlier this morning.
The US military completed its 12th consecutive night of strikes on Iranian military targets overnight, with President Donald Trump ordering the latest wave, according to Arab media reports. The strikes targeted unspecified military sites across Iran, continuing the campaign that began in June.
The Zioneer reported at 06:53 Jerusalem that CENTCOM confirmed the 12th round was complete, and that Iranian media reported two killed and 11 wounded at the Shalamcheh border crossing near Iraq. A subsequent article at 07:07 Jerusalem detailed the casualties. Earlier in the campaign, The Zioneer reported that B-1 bombers were used for the first time on Wednesday night, and again in the latest wave, along with intensified strikes on Kermanshah, Bushehr, and command centers.
The campaign, which President Trump announced in June, has expanded to include multiple provinces. Trump has repeatedly vowed to continue strikes until Iran agrees to a nuclear deal, as The Zioneer reported on June 28.
The White House has not yet commented on the latest operation. No Israeli involvement has been reported in this round.
