US Central Command Launches Retaliatory Strikes on Iranian Naval Targets
U.S. aircraft struck ten Iranian military targets on Sirri and Qeshm islands on June 28, 2026, in response to a drone attack on the Panama-flagged oil tanker Kiku. The strikes targeted missile and drone storage facilities, coastal radar installations, and naval mine-laying systems. President Trump stated the operation was necessary after Iran violated previous ceasefire understandings. Iranian state media reported multiple explosions at IRGC naval assets, leading to a new wave of regional tensions.
