The US military conducted retaliatory strikes against Iran on Thursday, targeting sites it claims were responsible for attacking US forces. These actions were described as a response to "unprovoked hostilities" by Tehran. Iran had previously accused the US of violating a ceasefire by striking an oil tanker and another ship near the Strait of Hormuz, as well as civilian areas. The US Central Command stated that it eliminated inbound threats and targeted Iranian military facilities, including missile and drone launch sites, command and control locations, and intelligence nodes.
