US Strikes Iran Over Strait of Hormuz | Global News

US military launches major overnight strikes on Iran, targeting air defenses, radar sites, and missile/drone capabilities — including first-ever use of one-way sea drones — in direct response to Iran’s attacks on commercial ships in the Strait of Hormuz. Iran claims strikes on US bases in Jordan, Bahrain, and Kuwait, while those nations report intercepting missiles and aerial threats. Escalation follows Trump’s recent declaration ending the US-Iran ceasefire and calling Iran’s leadership “scum.” US officials say the strikes aim to cripple Iran’s ability to threaten global shipping, vowing to defend freedom of navigation as tensions soar.
