US launches eighth wave of strikes on Iran's Revolutionary Guard in retaliation for troop killings
Washington launched its eighth consecutive wave of strikes against Iran overnight Saturday, according to U.S. Central Command. The attacks were directed at facilities operated by the Iranian Revolutionary Guard, following Tehran’s killing of two U.S. soldiers at an airbase in Jordan. The U.S. military confirmed that a third U.S. soldier remains missing in action.
The latest strikes are part of a broader U.S. campaign aimed at degrading Iran’s military capabilities and deterring further hostile actions. Central Command stated that the targets were chosen to disrupt the Revolutionary Guard’s operational capacity and to signal a continued response to the recent killings. Iran has not yet issued a formal statement on the new attacks.
The situation remains fluid, and U.S. officials are monitoring the developments closely. Updates will be provided as additional information becomes available.
