The United States confirmed having carried out a precision attack against Iranian targets in the Strait of Hormuz. The military action was executed on Sunday and represents the first military operation against Iran in about a month.
The attack was classified as a precision operation by the American authorities. The Strait of Hormuz is a strategic region of vital importance for international maritime traffic, particularly for oil transportation.
The action marks a significant escalation in tensions between the United States and Iran. This is the first time in approximately a month that the USA has carried out a direct military operation against Tehran, after a period of relative calm between the two countries.
Details about the specific targets hit and any casualties have not been immediately disclosed by the American military command. The operation occurs at a time of growing tension in the Persian Gulf region.
