Explosions Reported in Iran's Sirik Region, US Military Claims Further Strikes Against Iran

According to CCTV reporters, on June 27 local time, the United States has carried out military strikes against Iran.

The U.S. Central Command issued a statement saying that under President Trump's directive, the U.S. military has conducted a new round of strikes against multiple targets within Iran. The statement noted that after the U.S. military struck Iranian targets in response to the attack on the commercial ship "Changyue" on the 26th, the U.S. had given Iran an opportunity to adhere to the ceasefire agreement, but the Iranian military launched a one-way attack drone again at 4:30 AM Eastern Time on the 27th, hitting a tanker flying the Panamanian flag that was carrying over 2 million barrels of crude oil.

The U.S. military stated that this strike is a direct response to Iran's ongoing attacks on commercial shipping, targeting Iranian military surveillance infrastructure, communication systems, air defense positions, drone storage facilities, and mine-laying capabilities. The statement emphasized that commercial vessels are still passing through the Strait of Hormuz, and the U.S. military will maintain a high state of alert.

There has been no response from the Iranian side regarding this matter.

Previously, after the U.S. and Iran reached and signed a memorandum of understanding, the U.S. military had launched strikes around the Strait of Hormuz on June 26, targeting Iranian missile and drone storage sites as well as coastal radar stations.
