Iran Hit By Another Wave Of U.S. Strikes As Military Campaign Continues

U.S. Central Command forces completed another round of strikes against Iran at 10:30 p.m. ET on July 22, marking the 12th consecutive night of operations.

U.S. forces struck Iranian military targets including maritime capabilities, missile and drone storage facilities, coastal surveillance sites, and air defense assets. The strikes further degraded Iran’s ability to attack civilian mariners and commercial vessels.

This month, American forces have targeted dozens of Iranian military sites on land while resuming a blockade against Iran at sea. As of July 22, CENTCOM had redirected nine commercial vessels and disabled one to prevent ships from entering or departing Iranian ports.

More than 50,000 U.S. service members are operating across the Middle East and remain highly vigilant, focused, lethal, and ready.
