U.S. Central Command announced it carried out strikes against 90 Iranian military targets, including logistics infrastructure, missile and drone storage sites, air defense systems, coastal surveillance installations, and naval assets. The operation was in response to the IRGC's targeting of commercial shipping, CENTCOM said.
U.S. Central Command officially confirmed Thursday morning that it struck 90 Iranian military targets in a precision air campaign, detailing the target sets as logistics infrastructure, missile and drone storage sites, air defense systems, coastal surveillance installations, and naval assets. The Pentagon simultaneously released video footage documenting the destruction of over 90 targets, providing visual confirmation of the operation's scale. The confirmation and video mark the latest escalation in the US-Iran conflict.
The Zioneer reported at 07:56 Jerusalem that the US had launched a new wave of strikes, with initial reports stating around 90 targets were hit. Within the same hour, a US official confirmed the strikes and said the ceasefire was over, while President Trump noted Iran was seeking a deal. The US military then detailed the target types, including air defense systems and maritime surveillance equipment. Earlier, at 06:11 Jerusalem, US Special Operations Command had confirmed striking 90 Iranian targets on Wednesday.
The strikes are part of a sustained US air campaign, as The Zioneer has reported in recent weeks. The IRGC has previously claimed to have destroyed 85 US military targets in the region, though those claims remain unverified. The Pentagon has stated the strikes aim to degrade Iran's ability to threaten commercial shipping and US forces.
The extent of damage to each target category remains unclear, and it is not known whether further strikes are planned. The IRGC's claims of retaliatory attacks on US bases in Bahrain have not been independently confirmed. The situation remains fluid.
