CENTCOM says strikes against Iran completed
US Central Command said its forces have completed self-defense strikes against Iran ordered by President Donald Trump in response to the downing of a US Army Apache helicopter.
According to CENTCOM, US Air Force and Navy fighter jets struck Iranian air-defense systems, ground-control stations and surveillance radar sites near the Strait of Hormuz using precision-guided munitions.
The military described the operation as a "proportional response" to recent attacks on US forces and international commercial shipping in regional waters.
"CENTCOM forces struck Iranian air defense, ground control stations, and surveillance radar sites near the Strait of Hormuz," the command said in a statement.
