According to regional assessments, US airstrikes are ongoing in the Strait of Hormuz area, and Iranian forces have retaliated with attacks on American bases and targets in the Gulf. The assessment notes that the conflict remains within established boundaries.
A regional assessment circulated Tuesday evening claims that the US military campaign near the Strait of Hormuz is ongoing and that Iran has retaliated by striking American bases and targets in the Gulf area. The assessment, which does not name specific targets or provide timestamps, describes the conflict as a 'game' in which neither side has escalated beyond predetermined boundaries. The analysis comes amid the sustained US air campaign against Iranian military infrastructure, which The Zioneer has covered extensively. No independent verification of the alleged Iranian retaliatory strikes was available at press time.
