US military launches new airstrikes to punish Iran for deaths of US troops

DUBAI: The US military said Saturday that it launched new airstrikes against Iran to “swiftly punish” the country’s Revolutionary Guard for an attack in Jordan that killed two American service members, left one missing and four requiring hospitalization. The strikes were designed to further degrade Iran’s ability to restrict the traffic of oil tankers through the Strait of Hormuz, the US Central Command said. The waterway accounted for roughly 20 percent of global oil supplies before the war.
