Overview
- The U.S. military has carried out seven consecutive nights of strikes inside Iran targeting surveillance sites, logistics hubs, underground weapons caches and maritime capabilities.
- Iran responded with rockets and drones against U.S. facilities and allied Gulf states, and Kuwaiti authorities report damage and injuries at an oil site and a power/desalination plant.
- The Pentagon and CENTCOM said two U.S. soldiers were killed and a third is missing after Iranian attacks on bases in Jordan, and several U.S. troops were wounded and treated.
- Iran's health ministry reported at least 50 dead and more than 500 injured from the U.S. strikes while CENTCOM publicly rejected Iranian claims about exploding tankers and ship seizures.
- Commercial traffic through the Strait of Hormuz has fallen sharply, the Gulf Cooperation Council condemned Iran's strikes on civilian infrastructure, and Tehran's move to suspend the June deal is a major setback to mediation efforts.
