Washington targets Iran's Strait build-up
The U.S. forces carried out a series of airstrikes on sites belonging to the Iranian Revolutionary Guard along Iran's southern coast, aiming to target the capabilities used to threaten navigation in the Strait of Hormuz. The U.S. Central Command confirmed that the strikes primarily targeted radars that Iran had been rebuilding after previously destroying them, and were carried out to reduce Iran's ability to target ships and aircraft in the region. These operations are part of the "Scorched Earth" strategy, which involves periodically targeting Iranian capabilities whenever they are reconstructed, in order to continuously disable them and protect the strategic waterway.
