The U.S. military has launched strikes on Iranian targets near the Strait of Hormuz. This action is part of a plan considered by President Trump and his aides to degrade Iran's missile and radar capabilities. The strikes aim to reduce the risk of Iranian attacks on maritime and air assets. Iranian media reported hits in several coastal cities and on Qeshm island. One strike in Kuhestak allegedly struck a wedding, causing casualties. In response, Iran reportedly launched ballistic missiles toward U.S. bases in Jordan. CENTCOM stated the strikes followed recent IRGC attempts against commercial shipping and American personnel. President Trump issued a warning of a more severe response if Iran retaliates. The Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps vowed severe punishment and stated the U.S. would regret its actions. An Iranian military source indicated the response would be significantly greater. This source also threatened attacks on U.S. interests and bases in the region.
