The United States has initiated a new series of military strikes against targets in Iran, US Central Command confirmed late Monday.
The operation, which began at 4:45 p.m.
ET, represents the third night of sustained military action directed by the Commander in Chief, signaling a significant intensification of the ongoing conflict.
This latest development follows two previous rounds of strikes launched within the past week, marking a rapid escalation in hostilities between Washington and Tehran.
The initial operations were triggered by an attack attributed to the Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps (IRGC) on a US naval vessel in the Mediterranean, prompting a coordinated response from US forces.
The repeated use of force raises immediate concerns for global energy markets, particularly given Iran's strategic position in the Persian Gulf.
