US Central Command releases video of recent strikes on Iran
U.S. Central Command (CENTCOM) released a video on Tuesday showing a new wave of strikes that it claims hit targets on Iran’s mainland and its island territories. The footage, posted to the command’s official social media channels, depicts missile launches and aerial attacks aimed at facilities identified by CENTCOM as strategic military assets. The video is part of a broader series of releases that the U.S. military has been issuing in response to escalating tensions in the region.
According to CENTCOM statements, the attacks were carried out by U.S. forces operating in the Persian Gulf and the eastern Mediterranean. The command emphasized that the targets were “military in nature” and that the operation was conducted in accordance with international law. Iran has not yet issued a formal response to the U.S. claims, but officials in Tehran have repeatedly warned against further U.S. aggression and have called for restraint from all parties.
The release comes amid heightened U.S.–Iran confrontations following a series of drone and missile incidents over the past months. While CENTCOM has not provided detailed information on the specific sites struck, the video underscores the U.S. military’s readiness to conduct precision strikes against Iranian infrastructure it deems threatening. The U.S. government maintains that its actions are defensive and aimed at protecting regional allies and maintaining stability in the Middle East.
