Washington : The continuously increasing tension in the Middle East is not showing signs of decreasing. On Wednesday, the US military claimed that it had carried out airstrikes against Iran for the 12th consecutive night. According to the US Army, Iran’s military infrastructure has been damaged in these attacks. At the same time, there are reports of civilian infrastructure also being targeted by both sides.
Know what the American Central Command said
Let us tell you that the US Central Command said that these attacks have been carried out with the aim of weakening Iran’s ability to allegedly threaten civilian sailors and commercial ships passing through regional waters. The US is trying to re-establish control over the Strait of Hormuz and normalize international shipping.
At the same time, US President Donald Trump warned Iran through social media on Wednesday. He said that if Iran targets any ship in the Strait of Hormuz, the US could retaliate by destroying a bridge or power plant.
Explosions heard in many cities of Iran
According to Iran’s semi-official Fars news agency, two loud explosions were heard near the Bushehr area of southern Iran. At the same time, the Kuwaiti army has claimed that its air defense system is stopping ‘hostile’ Iranian drones.
Amidst this ongoing tension in the Middle East, the conflict between America and Iran is continuously increasing, due to which there is a possibility that regional security and international trade will also be affected.
