US military said latest round of attacks on Iran lasted five hours and that US forces “successfully struck military targets across Iran including Bushehr, Chah Bahar, Jask, Konarak, Abu Musa, and Bandar Abbas,” Al Jazeera reports.

US forces “employed precision munitions against Iranian coastal defense systems, missile and drone sites, and maritime capabilities,” it said, with the aim of further degrading “Iran’s ability to attack commercial shipping”.
