Skip next section US strikes Iran for 9th consecutive night 07/20/2026 July 20, 2026 US strikes Iran for 9th consecutive night The US military launched a new wave of strikes targeting Iran early on Monday, the ninth consecutive night of attacks.
"The strikes will continue degrading Iranian military capabilities used to attack commercial vessels and civilian mariners transiting the Strait of Hormuz," the US military's Central Command (CENTCOM) said in a post on X.
Iranian state media reported that the northwestern city of Tabriz was struck. Previous waves of US attacks in the latest escalation had mainly targeted sites along the Persian Gulf coast in southern Iran.
The US has resumed daily attacks on Iran since a ceasefire collapsed on July 8.
