June 11 (UPI) -- The United States and Iran traded attacks Wednesday night for a second straight day with American forces hitting multiple military, surveillance and radar installations in southern Iran and Iran hitting back at its Persian Gulf neighbors.
U.S. Marine Corps, Air Force, and Navy assets deployed precision munitions against Iranian "military surveillance capabilities, communication systems, and air defense sites across Iran" posing a threat to U.S. forces and international commercial ships transiting regional waters," U.S. Central Command said in a statement on X.
Tomahawk missiles were fired from the guided-missile destroyer USS Michael Murphy.
"The strikes are in response to Iran's unwarranted and continued aggression," added CENTCOM.
