CENTCOM is confirming that US forces carried out strikes against Iranian Revolutionary Guard Corps (IRGC) targets inside Iran. According to CENTCOM, the strikes were launched in response to recent Iranian attacks on American service members and commercial shipping in the region. Details on the specific targets, timing, and scope of the operation have not yet been fully disclosed. The move marks a significant escalation in tensions between Washington and Tehran, coming after a string of Iranian-linked provocations against US personnel and vessels. BreakFirst will continue to monitor official statements from CENTCOM and the Pentagon as more information becomes available on the operation and any Iranian response.
