Iran’s Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps (IRGC) announced a large-scale missile and drone operation targeting eight U.S. military installations in the region. The IRGC framed the attacks as a direct response to perceived renewed American aggression towards Iran. Details regarding specific targets and potential casualties remain limited. This action marks a significant escalation in tensions between the two countries. Iranian officials assert control over the Strait of Hormuz, a critical waterway for global oil transport, further complicating the situation. The attacks prompted immediate international concern and calls for de-escalation. Further developments are expected as the U.S. assesses the extent of the damage and prepares its response.
