U.S. forces conduct new military strikes inside Iran; Iran responds with missiles and drones targeting U.S. positions

U.S. forces launched a new round of strikes inside Iran on Tuesday, expanding attacks that resumed after a ceasefire. Central Command stated the strikes were in response to attempted attacks by Iran on commercial shipping in the Strait of Hormuz and U.S. service members in the Middle East. Iran's Tasnim news agency reported that its military launched a 'decisive operation' against U.S. targets in the region, with missiles and drones targeting U.S. bases and interests.
