The United States said it has hit over 8,000 Iranian military targets since the war began in late February. A US official said, “We have struck over 8,000 targets, including vessels and key sites.” The strikes include attacks on Iran’s navy and missile systems. The conflict shows no signs of slowing. Iran accused the US and Israel of targeting civilian and passenger ships. Fresh strikes also hit Iran’s Natanz nuclear facility. Several countries have urged Iran to reopen the Strait of Hormuz. Rising attacks have increased global concern over safety, oil supply, and stability in the region.
