The United States says it has launched and then completed a new round of strikes on targets in Iran. The US Central Command (CENTCOM) states the attacks respond to what it describes as Iran’s “unwarranted and continued aggression.” According to CENTCOM, it hit new targets inside Iran, and later said it had completed the latest attacks.
Iranian state media report blasts in multiple locations across the country following the US announcements. The reports do not provide detailed information about the targets struck or the extent of damage.
Across the two accounts, both outlets attribute the timing and justification to CENTCOM, while citing Iranian state media for reports of explosions. The coverage reflects an ongoing dispute between the two sides, with the US presenting the strikes as retaliatory and Iran reporting impacts on the ground without additional verification from independent sources in the provided material.
