Iran renews attacks on U.S.-linked Gulf states after a seventh consecutive night of U.S. strikes against Iranian military targets, according to reports. The strikes target Iranian military sites, including logistics infrastructure, and Iran responds by escalating actions in the region after a fragile ceasefire agreement collapses about a week earlier. Multiple outlets report that U.S. forces hit sites described as related to surveillance, military logistics, underground weapons storage and maritime capabilities. They also say both sides take aim at shipping traffic. The United States says it is enforcing a naval blockade, while Iran says it targets vessels it says violate its navigation rules in the Strait of Hormuz. One outlet describes the broader context as both Washington and Tehran testing escalation limits since the ceasefire failure. Across accounts, the sequence of continued U.S. strikes followed by renewed Iranian actions is presented as part of an expanding confrontation that includes both land and maritime components in and around the Strait of Hormuz.
