US launches fresh strikes on iran and hormuz

Featured Replies

The US launched a wave of strikes against Iran for the sixth night in a row, its military said, as the two sides battled for control of the Strait of Hormuz.

US Central Command (Centcom) said the attacks were intended to "further degrade Iranian military capabilities", before saying it had boarded a vessel as part of its blockade of Iranian ports.

In an apparent escalation, Iran's state media reported that the US had struck civilian infrastructure, including bridges, a train station and an airport. The BBC has verified an attack on one bridge to the west of Bandar Abbas in Hormozgan province.

The BBC has contacted the White House and Centcom for comment. 

US missiles also struck close to the island of Qeshm, near the strait, as well as in Bandar Abbas and Bushehr - the site of a nuclear power plant. 

Centcom did not mention bridges in its list of the "dozens of Iranian military targets" it hit in the latest round of strikes, which ended in the early hours of Friday.

Looks like another war we will eventually lose. Why can't nations just accept our demands so they can get back to abusing their own citizens. We could even provide them better tech to to punish their populations incessantly. I really don't see the point of these endless wars but was hoping this time would be different.
