The US Central Command said on Tuesday that it had struck over 80 targets during its latest strikes on Iran.

"US forces struck Iranian air defense systems, command-and-control networks, coastal radar sites, anti-ship missile capabilities, and more than 60 Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps small boats in and near the Strait (of Hormuz) to degrade Iran's ability to continue attacking international commerce flowing through the international trade ⁠corridor," it said in a statement.

Iran's top joint military command, Khatam al-Anbiya Central Headquarters, later said in a statement that Iran will give a decisive response to US "aggression and terrorist attack," and will not allow the US to interfere in the Strait of Hormuz.
