Security and Middle East analyst Yair Goldblatt questions whether the United States will carry out a strike in southern Iran today, in response to ceasefire violations involving attacks on tankers in the Gulf, according to a post on his X account.
The Zioneer reported earlier today that a senior US official stated the United States would strike targets in southern Iran tonight in response to attacks on commercial ships in the Strait of Hormuz. Yair Goldblatt's question reflects ongoing speculation about a potential US military response to reported Iranian ceasefire violations involving tanker attacks in the Gulf. Previous US strikes in southern Iran have targeted naval bases, air defenses, and missile batteries. No US strike has been confirmed at this hour.
