US military launches new airstrikes to 'swiftly punish' Iran for deaths of US troops

The U.S. military launched airstrikes against Iran to punish the Revolutionary Guard after an attack on a Jordan base killed two American service members and injured others. The strikes targeted areas near the Strait of Hormuz to disrupt Iran's control over oil tanker traffic, while separate attacks hit Iraq's Kurdish region, wounding members of an Iranian Kurdish dissident group.
