US Iran War | US Launches 'Heavy' Strikes On Iran After Attack On American Troops
The US military has launched airstrikes in Iran in retaliation for an Iranian missile attack targeting an American base in Jordan. These are the first American strikes on Iran since US President Donald Trump paused the bombing campaign last week to make room for negotiation to restart. "The strikes are a powerful response to yesterday's attempted Iranian attacks on US forces based in the Middle East," US Central Command said, noting the attacks began at 8 pm (0000 GMT).
