The United States carried out a third round of airstrikes on Iran late Saturday, targeting around 140 military sites across the country. According to a report by Al Jazeera, the strikes followed the signing of a memorandum of understanding and were conducted under the direction of President Donald Trump. The US Central Command (CENTCOM) said the operation aimed to hold Iranian forces accountable for a recent attack on a Cyprus-flagged vessel in the Strait of Hormuz.
CENTCOM stated that the targets included missile and drone bases, naval assets, ammunition depots, communication networks, and coastal surveillance centers. The command added that the campaign sought to reduce Iran’s ability to threaten civilian and commercial ships navigating the strait. Over the past week, three rounds of strikes have hit more than 300 targets. CENTCOM also reported assisting over 800 commercial vessels carrying 400 million barrels of oil through the strait since early May.
The ongoing US-Iran conflict has destabilized the Gulf region, driving up global fuel prices and inflation. Iran’s Revolutionary Guard Corps (IRGC) declared the strait closed until US intervention ends, warning of further retaliation if attacked again.
