"The United States military has said its forces have destroyed Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps (IRGC) command and control facilities and air defence installations as heavy US-Israel attacks on Iran continued for a fourth day and Tehran retaliated across the region. The US Central Command (CENTCOM), which is responsible for US military operations in the Middle East, said on Tuesday it also destroyed air defence installations as well as missile and drone launch sites."
"On Monday, CENTCOM claimed US forces had struck more than 1,250 targets in Iran and destroyed 11 Iranian ships. Meanwhile, it confirmed that six US service personnel have been killed so far, all in Iran's retaliatory attacks over the weekend on Kuwait. Kuwait mistakenly shot down three US F-15E fighter jets during an Iranian attack, it added."
"The war looks unlikely to end soon as US President Donald Trump said on Monday that Washington has the capability to go far longer than its projected four-to-five-week timeframe for its military operations against Iran. Across the Iranian capital, Tehran, the sound of explosions rang out through the night and into the early morning hours on Tuesday."
US Central Command reports destroying over 1,250 Iranian targets including IRGC command facilities, air defense installations, missile and drone launch sites, and eleven Iranian ships. Six US service personnel were killed in Iranian retaliatory attacks on Kuwait, with three F-15E fighter jets mistakenly shot down by Kuwaiti forces; all crew members safely ejected and recovered. Five IRGC air force and navy members died in US-Israeli strikes on Bushehr province cities. Explosions were reported across Tehran, Isfahan, and Shiraz as Israeli air operations continued targeting Iranian air defenses. President Trump indicated military operations could extend significantly beyond the projected four-to-five-week timeframe.
