The United States military is taking necessary action to degrade Iran's ability to threaten global commerce, launching its 12th consecutive night of strikes against Iranian military targets.
These operations, directed by President Trump, targeted critical infrastructure including missile and drone storage facilities, coastal surveillance sites, and air defense assets.
This decisive response follows a pattern of escalating hostility from the Iranian regime and its Houthi proxies, who recently claimed responsibility for attacking Saudi oil tankers in the Red Sea.
The Houthis, acting as an arm of Iranian influence, have attempted to impose an illegal maritime embargo, endangering civilian mariners and disrupting international shipping.
While the Iranian Revolutionary Guard continues to threaten the Strait of Hormuz, the U.S. remains committed to protecting the freedom of navigation and ensuring that those who attempt to choke off global energy supplies face the consequences of their actions.
Despite Iranian threats of retaliation, the administration has made it clear that American strength will be used to neutralize threats to our interests and those of our allies.
