US strikes Iran for second day, hitting military surveillance capabilities, air defense systems
US Central Command (CENTCOM) announced that it launched “self-defense strikes” against multiple targets in Iran at the direction of US President Donald Trump in a post on X/Twitter on Wednesday.
According to Iranian state media reports, after the strikes were announced, explosions were heard in western Tehran and the southern Iranian cities of Sirik and Minab.
CENTCOM stated that it targeted Iranian military surveillance capabilities, communications systems, and air defense sites across Iran with precision munitions. The sites targeted posed a threat to US forces in the region and commercial ships attempting to transit the Strait of Hormuz, according to the US military.
