US Central Command has confirmed additional strikes on Iran following a reported attack on commercial shipping, marking a further escalation in tensions in the Gulf region. Iranian state media reports multiple explosions in the port city of Sirik in southern Iran, with officials saying projectiles targeted a telecommunications tower.
The city lies near the strategically vital Strait of Hormuz. This marks the second reported strike on the area in as many days, as tit-for-tat exchanges continue between the United States and Iran despite a recent memorandum of understanding aimed at de-escalation.
The situation remains highly volatile, with both sides trading accusations and military action around one of the world’s most important shipping corridors. More details are
expected as the situation develops. Find us on Check our website Check out our Instagram page Download AJE Mobile App
