President Trump Authorizes Second Night of Self-Defense Strikes on Iran
On June 11, 2026, President Donald Trump directed U.S. Central Command to launch a fresh wave of strikes on multiple targets in Iran for the second consecutive night. The escalation follows a high-casualty Iranian ballistic missile attack on southern Israel. Trump warned that the U.S. would hit Iran 'very hard' and potentially target energy infrastructure on Kharg Island if Tehran refuses to comply with a proposed deal, marking a critical transition toward open conflict.
