"US Central Command forces began launching additional self-defense strikes today at 6:15 p.m. [Brasília time] against multiple targets in Iran, on orders from the commander in chief. The strikes are a response to Iran's unwarranted and continued aggression," Centcom said in a statement.
This 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. 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.
Earlier, Iran had promised a "tough response" to any US aggression this Wednesday, and said that a new escalation of the conflict would not be restricted just to the Middle East. The Iranian government had not yet launched bombings in response to the US attack until the last update of this report.
The US attack occurred hours after President Donald Trump said that his Army would attack Iran again "later today". US Secretary of War Pete Hegseth said the bombings would be "clear force" and would hit vital Iranian installations.
Hegseth, however, did not elaborate on whether he was referring to key Iranian military installations or the country's vital infrastructure. There is a taboo on attacking this second type, because it would have major repercussions for the Iranian population in general and could constitute a war crime. category According to Trump's secretary, the bombings will be "strong and clear".
This report is being updated.
