A US official told Amichai Stein (i24NEWS) that the overnight strikes on Iranian targets were more intense than those in recent days, and that 'hundreds of targets' still need to be struck along the Strait of Hormuz. The statement signals the campaign is far from over.
A US official told Amichai Stein (i24NEWS) on Monday evening that the overnight American strikes on Iranian targets were more powerful than those in previous days, and that 'hundreds of targets' remain to be struck along the Strait of Hormuz. The official's remarks come as the US air campaign against Iranian military positions continues.
The statement follows a previous report by a US official to The New York Times at 17:48 Jerusalem on Monday, indicating that a larger wave of strikes was expected that night. The new assessment suggests the campaign is intensifying rather than winding down.
The US has been conducting strikes against Iranian positions along the Strait of Hormuz since early June, as The Zioneer has reported. The strategic waterway has been a focal point of the conflict, with Iran threatening to close the strait in response to the attacks.
