Summary
State media reported a strike on a railway bridge in Iran's northeastern Golestan province, and the Revolutionary Guard said two bridges had been attacked on the route to Mashhad, where officials plan to bury the late Ayatollah Ali Khamenei on Thursday. US Central Command posted videos of strikes that took place on Tehran the day prior The President bragged about the US strikes on Truth Social, saying it was vengeance for Iran attacking commercial ships in the Strait of Hormuz and that there could be worse to come Iranian state media reported explosions in several locations, including Bushehr, home to Iran's nuclear power plant complex, and the southern port cities of Chabahar, Konarak, Bandar Abbas and Sirik. Iran has asserted that the interim ceasefire deal gives it the right to manage traffic through the strait.
Furthermore, Negotiations to reach a final deal were due to start after the funeral for Khamenei, who was killed February 28 in the war's first moments. The U.S. says the strikes were intended to “further degrade” Iran’s ability “to threaten freedom of navigation” in the strait, through which a fifth of the world’s traded oil and natural gas passed before the war began with U.S. and Israeli attacks on Feb. Trump has made other threats to seize Kharg Island, including last month, when he also questioned whether the U.S. “has the stomach for it.” Some 90% of Iranian oil exports pass through the island.
In addition, The US military's Central Command said it hit some 90 targets across Iran, releasing black-and-white footage of what appeared to be strikes on an airport runway and missile launchers. After three tankers were hit Tuesday, the US launched strikes on Iran, and Iranian forces retaliated by targeting American military sites in the Persian Gulf. However, the initial deal reached between the US and Iran only secures safe, toll-free passage of the waterway for 60 days, pending the outcome of a final agreement on Tehran’s disputed nuclear plans.
Moreover, Trump unleashed a fresh wave of airstrikes against the regime on Wednesday, hitting 90 Iranian targets to 'further degrade their ability to threaten freedom of navigation' in the Persian Gulf.
