The United States military has claimed responsibility for airstrikes on radar installations in southern Iran. The announcement came on Friday, when the US Central Command stated that four Iranian drones had been shot down after being launched toward the Strait of Hormuz. Following the interception, US forces targeted coastal surveillance radar facilities on Goruk and Qashem islands.

According to the Central Command, the Iranian drones posed a threat to regional maritime navigation, prompting the strikes to prevent further attacks. The incident marks another escalation between the two countries despite a temporary ceasefire declared on April 8, which was brokered by Pakistan.

Efforts to achieve a lasting end to hostilities have so far failed, with both sides continuing to exchange proposals and counterproposals for peace. Leaders from both nations have also indicated their readiness to resume attacks if necessary, underscoring the fragile nature of the current truce.
