U.S. military launches new airstrikes to ‘swiftly punish’ Iran for attack on Jordan that killed American troops
The U.S. military launched airstrikes against Iran to punish its Revolutionary Guard for an attack in Jordan that killed two American service members, left one missing, and injured four others. The strikes aim to degrade Iran’s ability to restrict oil tanker traffic through the Strait of Hormuz, a critical global oil supply route. Iran’s supreme leader warned of retaliatory 'unforgettable lessons,' and Tehran suspended commitments to a recent interim deal aimed at ending the conflict.
