Video Us Iran Airstrikes Hormuz Trump Ceasefire Bahrain Kuwait Attacks

The US Central Command on Sunday released footage purportedly showing US Navy and Air Force fighter jets conducting strikes on Iranian military targets at several locations in and around the Strait of Hormuz.

The footage, which was released by the Central Command on social media, showed multiple strikes by US forces on what the command said was “10 Iranian military targets at multiple locations in and near the Strait of Hormuz.”

The development comes after President Donald Trump directed the US military to launch a second round of airstrikes targeting Iran on Sunday, as Tehran retaliated by hitting both Bahrain and Kuwait, threatening the fragile ceasefire and negotiations that remain underway to halt the four-month-old conflict.

The attack on Kuwait was the first since Washington and Tehran signed an initial agreement that aims to pause the hostilities in the West Asia region.

The US military earlier said it hit the Iranian military “surveillance infrastructure, communication systems, air defense sites, drone storage facilities and minelayer capabilities” after the Islamic Republic’s forces attacked a ship in the Strait of Hormuz earlier on Saturday.

US President Donald Trump, in a post on Truth Social, warned that America may no longer be able to be reasonable “and will be forced to militarily complete the job.” He further wrote US had “struck Iranian missile and drone storage locations, and coastal radar sites, for violating the Cease Fire Agreement, AGAIN!”

“If that happens, the Islamic Republic of Iran will no longer exist!” the US President wrote on Truth Social.

The incident comes after a similar back and forth strikes took place a few days ago when an Iranian drone hit a merchant vessel in the coast of Oman and the US military had retaliated with strikes, threatening the talks and truce deal, AP reported.
