US Conducts New Limited Strikes on Iran, Trump Says

di.se (Swedish) —

President Donald Trump announced that the US has conducted new "limited" strikes against Iran, stating that a small air defense device was destroyed in roughly five to fifteen minutes. Trump did not specify the location, but Iran's state news agency Irna reported that Qeshm Island was hit by at least two missiles late Friday evening. This follows similar strikes earlier in the week targeting air defense installations in the same area. The US government has repeatedly signaled renewed attacks could follow this week's midterm elections. Iran's military spokesperson claimed its forces are stronger and more motivated than when the war began in February.
