US conducts targeted strike on Iran Guards
The U.S. Central Command (CENTCOM) confirmed that its forces carried out limited and precise operations against Iranian Revolutionary Guard Corps forces that were planting mines in the Strait of Hormuz. These mines posed an imminent threat to global trade and maritime flow. The agency explained that these American efforts aimed to protect commercial vessels and ensure freedom of navigation, emphasizing that Iran was responsible for creating this threat. The Iranian Revolutionary Guard denied the American claims, describing the U.S. strikes as aggressive. Additionally, the U.S. Central Command announced that by August 30, it had rerouted 83 ships, disabled 3 vessels, and boarded two ships to ensure compliance with the blockade. Former U.S. President Donald Trump also noted that the American intervention was to prevent Iran from acquiring nuclear weapons. He confirmed that control of the Strait of Hormuz was restored after the mines were removed, cautioning that Iran seeks nuclear arms, which would have consequences that threaten both the region and the world.
