The United States has launched a new wave of strikes on Iran, the ninth consecutive night of operations, as The Zioneer reported at 02:18 Jerusalem. This wave includes reports of explosions in Tabriz, a major city in northwestern Iran, and video footage showing American missile launches from Kuwait.
According to CENTCOM, the strikes began at 7 PM ET Sunday (2 AM Jerusalem Monday) and are aimed at degrading Iranian military capabilities used to threaten commercial shipping in the Strait of Hormuz.
Local reports indicate explosions across several provinces, with Tabriz being the first specific city named in this wave. The US has been conducting sustained airstrikes since July 13, initially in response to IRGC attacks on shipping and on US forces in Jordan. The campaign expands each night, with CENTCOM stating it will continue until Iran's ability to threaten the strait is neutralized.
