U.S. Forces Conduct New Strikes on Iran Amid Escalating Tensions

U.S. forces initiated new self-defense strikes against Iran, targeting key facilities such as ammunition depots, command and control nodes, and warehouses. This action follows President Trump's statements indicating Iran had taken too long to negotiate a deal and would 'pay the price' for continued aggression. The strikes occurred after a fragile ceasefire was ruptured by an exchange of fire following the downing of a U.S. Army Apache helicopter near the Strait of Hormuz.
