US resumes daylight strikes on Iran as tensions escalate over Strait of Hormuz

The United States has resumed daylight airstrikes against Iran, targeting coastal defense systems and cruise missile storage on Greater Tunb Island. These actions follow recent Iranian attacks on commercial vessels in the Persian Gulf and represent an escalation in U.S. efforts to limit Iran's ability to threaten shipping in the Strait of Hormuz. According to the U.S. Central Command (CENTCOM), the strikes aim to degrade Iran's strategic infrastructure and prevent recovery time for Iranian forces. Iranian authorities report casualties and injuries from the attacks, though these figures cannot be independently verified. Meanwhile, political rhetoric in Iran has intensified, with calls for a stronger response to U.S. military actions, including suggestions to seize U.S. military bases and take soldiers hostage.
