The US Central Command announced the launch of a new wave of military attacks against targets deep inside Iran, which began at 4:45 PM Eastern Time. These operations come as part of the third consecutive night of direct military escalation, in a move that reflects unprecedented tension in the region.
In a related context, US President Donald Trump revealed during a media interview that Tehran will face violent and intense military strikes in the coming hours and tomorrow. Trump confirmed that he officially notified Congress of the resumption of combat operations, stressing at the same time that the option of reaching a political agreement with the Iranian regime is still on the table despite the drums of war.
On the ground, media sources reported loud explosions in the coastal city of Bandar Abbas in southern Iran. While local authorities confirmed hearing the explosions, they have not yet determined the nature of the targets hit or the extent of the resulting damage, amid a state of security and military alert in the region.
Iran will be subjected to strong strikes today and tomorrow, but reaching an agreement is still possible.
