The U.S. military said it carried out strikes against multiple Iranian targets, including surveillance infrastructure, air defense sites and drone storage facilities.
Officials described the action as retaliation for what they characterized as Iranian provocations against American ships and military interests in the region.
The strikes mark a further escalation in hostilities between the two countries. Targeting air defense and drone capabilities is typically aimed at degrading an adversary’s ability to monitor and threaten forces operating nearby.
