US Conducts Additional Military Strikes Against Iran

The US military on Saturday conducted additional strikes against multiple targets in Iran.

The US launched an additional round of strikes after Iran attacked another ship in the Strait of Hormuz on Saturday.

Per CENTCOM:

U.S. Central Command (CENTCOM) forces conducted additional strikes against multiple targets in Iran, June 27, at the Commander in Chief’s direction.

After yesterday’s U.S. strikes in response to the Iranian attack on M/V Ever Lovely, Iran was given a chance to honor the ceasefire agreement but elected not to when its forces launched a one-way attack drone that hit M/T Kiku this morning at 4:30 a.m. ET.

The Panama-flagged tanker was transiting near the Strait of Hormuz with more than two-million barrels of crude oil. CENTCOM forces launched strikes today in direct response to continued Iranian aggression against commercial shipping.

U.S. military aircraft targeted Iranian military surveillance infrastructure, communication systems, air defense sites, drone storage facilities, and minelayer capabilities.

Commercial vessel transits through the Strait of Hormuz continue. U.S. forces remain vigilant, lethal, and ready.

The US military on Friday struck Iran in response to an attack on a commercial vessel in the Strait of Hormuz.

On Thursday, Iranian drones attacked a Singapore-flagged cargo ship exiting the Strait of Hormuz amid a ‘ceasefire agreement.’

Earlier Friday, President Trump said Iran’s attack was a “foolish violation of our ceasefire agreement.”

“The Islamic Republic of Iran shot at least four One Way Attack Drones at Ships transversing the Strait of Hormuz. One of the Drones solidly hit the upper deck of a large and very expensive Cargo Carrying Ship. Damage was done, but the Ship was able to proceed on its way. We knocked down three other Drones. Obviously, this is a foolish violation of our Ceasefire Agreement,” Trump said.

Later Friday, the US military conducted strikes against Iranian missile and drone storage locations.

unless the retaliation was 100 times disproportionate, they’re wasting their time ...

Enjoy our no end wars we weren’t promised.

We will be at war for at least three more years.

Not everyone.

But that is what I think most people expected to happen: negotiations break down / fail, or they break the deal after it’s made.

But...

Not all hope is lost yet.
