The U.S. renewed its strikes against Iran on Tuesday following attacks on commercial shipping in the Strait of Hormuz.
US Resumes Strikes Against Iran
In a post on X, U.S. Central Command, or CENTCOM, announced the resumption of strikes.
"U.S. Central Command forces have begun launching a series of powerful strikes against Iran to impose heavy costs for targeting and attacking commercial shipping crewed by innocent civilians in an international waterway," CENTCOM said.
CENTCOM said the strikes were in response to "Iranian attacks on three commercial vessels that were transiting the Strait of Hormuz."
