WASHINGTON, 9th July, 2026 (WAM) — The US military launched another round of strikes against Iran late Wednesday night, US Central Command (CENTCOM) said, in the second night of attacks.
CENTCOM said on X that Wednesday’s strikes are intended to “further degrade [Iran’s] ability to threaten freedom of navigation in the Strait of Hormuz.”
It said the strikes are in reaction to Iranian attacks on three commercial oil tankers earlier this week.
