The US military announced Wednesday afternoon that it has completed a wave of strikes in Iran lasting 90 minutes, according to a report by Asaf Rozentzweig (N12). The announcement adds a new chapter to a day of intense aerial activity, following earlier reports of a new wave of strikes launched earlier in the day.
Earlier today, at 05:28 Jerusalem, The Zioneer reported that CENTCOM had completed a 7-hour strike wave and then launched a new wave targeting Iranian military capabilities used to attack commercial shipping in the Strait of Hormuz. The same thread later included confirmation from CENTCOM that it had resumed daylight strikes as part of an increasing tempo, and an analyst linked the timing to reported attacks on Shiraz. The initial reports of the new wave came from multiple sources, including i24NEWS and security-focused outlets, before official US confirmation.
The strikes are part of an ongoing US aerial campaign against Iranian military infrastructure. As The Zioneer reported on July 14, a five-hour strike wave struck six sites including coastal defense systems in Bushehr, Chabahar, and Bandar Abbas (CENTCOM statement). Earlier, on July 9, US Special Operations Command confirmed striking 90 Iranian targets on July 8, part of a 48-hour window that hit 170 targets, including IRGC small boats (The Zioneer, July 9). The campaign has featured both nighttime and daylight operations.
The specific targets and scope of the 90-minute wave have not yet been disclosed. The announcement comes from a single Israeli media source citing the US military; no separate official US statement has been published at the time of writing. The Zioneer will continue to monitor for further updates.
