U.S. Launches Strikes In Iran
4 hours ago
The U.S. military says it carried out what it described as “self-defense” strikes in southern Iran, targeting missile launch sites and boats allegedly involved in placing mines.
American officials have not released additional details about the threats that prompted the operation or how the strikes could affect ongoing negotiations with Tehran.
The military action comes as President Donald Trump says talks with Iran are “proceeding nicely.” Trump has also suggested that any future agreement should include additional countries joining the Abraham Accords, the U.S.-brokered agreements aimed at normalizing relations with Israel.
The strikes mark another escalation in tensions in the region as diplomatic efforts continue behind the scenes.
