US military announces further strikes on Iranian military surveillance, comms systems and air defenses

The US military says it carried out a second wave of overnight strikes against Iran.

According to US Central Command, the strikes hit “Iranian military surveillance capabilities, communication systems, and air defense sites” across the Islamic Republic, with American forces using “precision munitions on Iranian targets that posed a threat to US forces and international commercial ships transiting regional waters.”

“The strikes are in response to Iran’s unwarranted and continued aggression. US forces remain vigilant, lethal, and ready,” CENTCOM adds in a statement posted to X, which is accompanied by video of Tomahawk cruise missiles being fired from a guided missile destroyer.
