US CENTCOM: : AT 6 A.M. ET TODAY, U.S. CENTRAL COMMAND FORCES BEGAN LAUNCHING A WAVE OF STRIKES AGAINST IRAN. - RTRS $CL U.S. launches fresh wave of strikes on Iran, as analysts warn conflict risks becoming ‘forever war’ The U.S. launched a fresh round of strikes on Iran early Wednesday morning, hours after President Donald Trump warned military strikes would intensify next week if Tehran does not cooperate in peace talks. U.S. Central Command said in a post on X on Wednesday that it had begun launching a wave of strikes against Iran at 6 a.m. ET. “The strikes are designed to further degrade military capabilities Iranian forces have used to attack commercial shipping in the Strait of Hormuz,” it said. Centcom had carried out more strikes against Iran on Tuesday. Tehran, meanwhile, has launched attacks on multiple Gulf countries. In an interview with Fox News on Tuesday evening, Trump hinted that the conflict was more likely to intensify than de-escalate as a fragile ceasefire agreed last month continues to fracture.
