The U.S. military conducted a new round of strikes against Iran in the Strait of Hormuz on Tuesday, the U.S. Central Command said.
"Today at 12 p.m. ET, U.S. forces began striking Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps (IRGC) targets in Iran. The strikes follow recent attempted attacks by the IRGC against commercial shipping in the Strait of Hormuz and against American service members deployed to the region," CENTCOM said in a social media post. Attacks took place in Bandar Abbas, Jask, Chabahar, Konarak, Minab, Sirik, and the islands of Qeshm and Lavan.
