DUBAI, United Arab Emirates (AP) — The U.S. military said Wednesday it began another round of strikes against Iran after U.S. President Donald Trump warned that Tehran would "pay the price" for stalled negotiations. The escalating attacks threatened to derail efforts to end the war.
The U.S. Central Command said in a social media post that the military was striking "multiple targets in Iran," attacks that were "in response to Iran's unwarranted and continued aggression." Iran threatened to retaliate.
The strikes took place after a day of Iranian fire in Bahrain, Kuwait and Jordan — all of which host U.S. troops. Another round of missile sirens sounded early Thursday morning in Bahrain, the small island kingdom in the Persian Gulf off Saudi Arabia.
