The US has launched a new round of strikes on Iran after President Donald Trump signalled he would "hit them hard again tonight" following an exchange of attacks on Tuesday.
Explosions have been reported by Iranian state media in parts of the country's south, including Sirik and Bandar Abbas - port cities on the Strait of Hormuz.
After the latest strikes, Trump said in a post on Truth Social: "This is in retribution for yesterday's bombing of ships by Iran. If it happens again, it will get much worse!"
Donald Trump has warned Iran that the United States will retaliate each of its attacks with 20 strikes.
"We just hit them (Iran) very hard," he told reporters onboard his plane after the NATO summit in Turkey. "It was really retribution for last night. They hit actually three boats, not two, and when they hit, we hit back much harder," he said. "We hit them 20 to one every time they hit us."

The US military says its forces have completed an additional round of strikes against Iran, with the aim of degrading the country’s “ability to attack commercial shipping and innocent civilian mariners in the Strait of Hormuz”.
ReplyDeleteIn a statement, CENTCOM said “US forces struck approximately 90 Iranian military targets including air defense systems, coastal surveillance assets, missile and drone storage sites, naval capabilities, and military logistics infrastructure along Iran’s coastline”.
Iran's Islamic Revolution Guard Corps (IRGC) said on Thursday that it attacked U.S. military bases in Kuwait and Bahrain in response to fresh U.S. strikes.
ReplyDeleteAccording to a statement from the IRGC carried by Iran's Press TV, the IRGC struck key infrastructure and facilities at the Camp Arifjan and Ali Al Salem Air Base in Kuwait, as well as U.S. military bases in Bahrain's Juffair and Sheikh Isa, "in the first phase of a punitive response against the American treaty-breakers."
The IRGC also warned that its responses would expand to other bases in the region if the United States renews its attacks.
An Iranian military source said that Iran was planning to soon launch a 'massive attack' on US Army bases in the region in retaliation, as reported by NourNews, affiliated with Iran's top security body.
