Iran says it launches fresh attacks on U.S. facilities in the Gulf on Friday, following a sixth consecutive night of U.S. strikes on Iranian military sites. Reuters reports that the U.S. military says it completes another round of strikes aimed at further degrading Iranian military capabilities, including locations on and around Qeshm Island and near Bandar Abbas, where major port, navy, and Revolutionary Guards facilities are based. Multiple outlets describe the escalation as a breakdown of a truce reached last month, which they say has shifted into daily attacks and counterattacks that raise the risk of a broader regional conflict. Iran’s account is that it initiates new attacks in response to the ongoing U.S. operations. The reporting consistently frames the developments as a continuing cycle of overnight strikes by the United States and retaliatory actions attributed to Iran, without detailing specific targets beyond the U.S. military sites identified by the U.S. side. The situation remains characterized by ongoing exchanges rather than a renewed diplomatic pause.
