01 · THE DISPATCH

The United States military struck 90 targets in Iran overnight, in what a US official described as the most extensive American bombing since the end of the war. The targets included a maritime control tower, missile storage sites, and air defense systems. The US Special Operations Command confirmed the strikes earlier today, as The Zioneer reported at 06:11 Jerusalem, noting that the operation was part of ongoing military action against Iran.

In response, the Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps (IRGC) announced it struck targets in Bahrain, though the specific locations and damage were not immediately detailed. President Donald Trump said that Iranian officials had contacted Washington seeking a deal, but expressed doubt about their sincerity. 'We hit them 20 times harder than they hit us,' Trump stated.

A US official confirmed that the ceasefire is effectively over, at least temporarily, signaling that Washington is prepared to continue its military campaign unless a diplomatic breakthrough occurs. The remarks come amid an escalating cycle of strikes and retaliation between the US and Iran, which has seen multiple waves of American attacks since late June.
