US President Donald Trump said during NBC’s Meet the Press on Saturday that the United States had carried out a massive bombing campaign against Iran’s military forces. According to Al Jazeera, the statement came amid escalating tensions between Washington and Tehran.

The US Central Command (CENTCOM) confirmed that strikes targeted 140 Iranian military sites. It also claimed that no American troops were injured and no significant damage occurred in retaliatory attacks by Iran in Gulf countries. Several US media outlets, citing unnamed officials, reported that American strikes on Iranian military targets and small vessels in the Strait of Hormuz were still ongoing.

Trump reiterated that the Strait of Hormuz remained open, a claim that contradicted Iran’s position. The continued exchange of attacks appeared to undermine the fragile ceasefire Trump had mentioned earlier in the week.
