The US military’s Central Command (Centcom) says its forces have launched “additional self-defence strikes” against “multiple targets in Iran”, according to Al Jazeera.

Centcom says the strikes were carried out at US President Donald Trump’s direction and that they were “in response to Iran’s unwarranted and continued aggression”.
