The U.S. military announced it has opened a new wave of strikes against Iran, while Iranian reports indicate air defense systems were activated in Tehran. The strikes are the latest in an ongoing campaign against Iranian military targets.
The U.S. military announced early Wednesday that it has opened a new wave of strikes on Iran, with Iranian media reporting that air defense systems were activated in Tehran. The announcement comes just one minute after The Zioneer reported (at 02:40 Jerusalem) that the U.S. had launched a new wave of airstrikes, with explosions heard in Tabriz. This is the latest escalation in a sustained U.S. military campaign against Iranian military infrastructure that has been ongoing for weeks, including strikes on power grids, nuclear facilities, and other targets. The U.S. has described the strikes as defensive measures in response to Iranian aggression. The activation of Tehran's air defenses indicates the strikes reached the capital region, though the extent of damage is not yet known. The Zioneer will continue to monitor developments.
