US strikes Iran's coastal defences in fresh salvo; Tehran again targets American assets in Gulf states
The US launched a second wave of strikes on Iran’s coastal defenses and missile sites within 24 hours, following a reimposed naval blockade of Iranian ports. Iran retaliated by targeting US military assets in Gulf states, escalating tensions after a fragile truce collapsed. The US disabled an oil tanker near Iran and attacked locations including Greater Tunb Island and Bandar Abbas, while Iran reported explosions in multiple cities and activated air defenses.
