The United States carried out a fresh wave of strikes against Iran early Monday, according to a statement from U.S. Central Command (CENTCOM) posted to X.
“The strikes will continue degrading Iranian military capabilities used to attack commercial vessels and civilian mariners transiting the Strait of Hormuz,” CENTCOM said.
Iranian media reported explosions in several cities, including Tabriz, Chabahar, Konarak, Bandar Mahshahr, and Bandar Imam Khomeini.
The operation marks the ninth straight night of U.S. strikes on Iranian targets. Iran has responded by targeting U.S. bases and other infrastructure in neighboring countries.
Late Sunday, the Kuwaiti military announced it had intercepted multiple hostile drones, and air raid sirens sounded across the country.
Meanwhile, the U.S. Embassy in Manama issued a security alert Monday warning that Iran may seek to target unspecified locations in central Manama, urging American citizens in Bahrain to remain vigilant.
This is a developing story.
