A senior US official said Tuesday evening that the number of American strikes on Iran tonight could reach 100, according to a report from The Zioneer.
The statement was reported by The Zioneer's Intelligence Desk at 20:14 Jerusalem time. The official, whom the report did not name, projected that the ongoing US air campaign against Iran could escalate to 100 strikes tonight, a significant increase from previous waves.
The Zioneer has previously reported on a series of US statements and operations against Iran. On July 8, The Zioneer reported Trump warning of 'potential new strikes' following the Strait of Hormuz escalation. On June 10, Defense Secretary Hegseth vowed 'powerful and clear' strikes. The cumulative tally of US strikes reached 90 on a single night in July, according to a US confirmation reported by The Zioneer.
The projection has not been independently corroborated, and the scale and timing of any further strikes remain unconfirmed.
