U.S. Strikes Iran After Attack | Tucson News

U.S. military strikes hit Iranian targets after Tehran launched an attack on American forces, marking a major escalation after months of relative calm. Strikes began Wednesday evening, with U.S. Central Command calling it a strong response. This follows earlier U.S.-Saudi strikes on Iran-backed militias in Iraq and comes after President Trump vowed retaliation for Iran’s attack on a Jordanian base housing U.S. troops. The renewed conflict raises fears of a wider war, strains dwindling military munitions, and has already spiked oil prices. Drone strikes also hit two gas vessels in Egypt, with no clear culprit — though Trump blamed Iran and promised more retaliation. Mediators are quietly working to restore peace, but progress remains hidden. Listen in comfort:Get a discount on a Soli Pillow: http://solipillow.com/discount/dnn.
