The U.S. military has completed a 90-minute wave of attacks targeting Iranian coastal defense systems and missile launch facilities on the larger of the two Tunb Islands, according to the Central Command (Centcom). The strikes aimed to further weaken Iran's ability to attack commercial shipping in the Strait of Hormuz. Earlier, Centcom reported the start of the attack at 6:00 AM local time. Meanwhile, Iran denied reports of explosions near Shiraz, attributing them to mining activities. In separate developments, another man was executed in Iran in connection with January protests, reportedly for setting fire to a local government building using a Molotov cocktail. This marks the 21st execution linked to the protest wave. Additionally, four people were killed in an Israeli air strike on a home in Gaza, including a six-year-old girl and her parents, according to Palestinian medical sources.
