US military completes 13th consecutive night of strikes on Iran
The United States military announced that it has completed its thirteenth consecutive night of airstrikes targeting facilities in Iran. The Pentagon said the operations, conducted by a coalition of U.S. air assets, focused on locations identified as supporting Iran’s missile production and command‑and‑control networks, and that the strikes were carried out in accordance with previously stated objectives to degrade the adversary’s offensive capabilities.
The campaign, which began two weeks ago, follows a series of diplomatic warnings and a recent escalation in regional tensions after Iranian forces launched missile attacks on U.S. bases in the Middle East. U.S. officials reported that the latest round of strikes caused no civilian casualties and that damage assessments are ongoing. Iranian state media condemned the attacks as violations of international law, while allied nations called for restraint and a return to diplomatic channels. The United States indicated that it will continue to monitor the situation and adjust its response as necessary.
