"U.S. Central Command forces began launching additional self-defense strikes today at 6:15 p.m. [Brasília time] against multiple targets in Iran on the orders of the commander in chief. The strikes are a response to Iran's continued unjustified aggression," Centcom said in a statement.
This It is the second day in a row that the US has launched bombings against Iran since the beginning of the ceasefire in the war between the two countries. According to Washington, the first wave of attacks occurred in retaliation for the downing of an Apache helicopter by Iran. It is not yet known what impact this Wednesday's attacks will have on the truce in the conflict, which has been fragile since its beginning in April.
Iranian state agencies reported several explosions in Bandar Abbas, Minab, Kargan and Sirik, port cities in the Strait of Hormuz region, and that air defenses were activated in Isfahan. The Mehr agency spoke of "fights at sea" between Iranian and North American forces, but did not give further details.
A North American official told the website Axios that all the targets hit were in the south of Iran and included air defense systems, radars and drone command and control units.
Almost two hours after the US attack, the Iranian government again said that the Strait of Hormuz is closed to any type of ship, and that it fired on two vessels that said it was violating its blockade.
Earlier, Iran had also promised a "tough response" against US targets in the Middle East, and said that further escalation of the conflict would not be restricted to the Middle East alone. On Tuesday, Tehran attacked the US base in Bahrain in retaliation.
The US attack came hours after President Donald Trump said his Army would attack Iran again "later today." US Secretary of War Pete Hegseth said the bombings would be "clear strong" and would hit "key installations" in Iran. Hegseth, however, did not give details about which installations these were.
Also according to Hegseth, Wednesday's attacks would advance US military interests in the Middle East and help Washington reach a diplomatic solution to the war. Iran stated earlier, however, that the country does not negotiate under threats.
