US launches daytime airstrikes on Iran amid renewed Strait of Hormuz crisis
The US military's Central Command confirmed daytime airstrikes on Iran, marking a departure from previous nighttime operations, aimed at degrading Iranian military capabilities in the Strait of Hormuz. The strikes follow the collapse of an interim agreement between Washington and Tehran and the reimposition of a naval blockade on Iran. Iranian officials reported that the strikes killed seven soldiers and injured over 260, while Iran vowed a decisive response and continued missile attacks on US allies in the Gulf.
