Iran has started its attacks against US targets in the Middle East, the Press TV channel reported.

The US Central Command (CENTCOM) confirmed earlier in the day that the US military had started another wave of strikes against targets in Iran after the Islamic Republic’s elite military force, the Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps (IRGC), fired shots at a vessel in the Strait of Hormuz.

Earlier reports said blasts were heard in the Iranian port cities of Bandar Abbas and Sirik on the country’s southern coast, as well as in Chabahar in the southeast. Also, explosions were reported on the Qeshm island, in the city of Asaluyeh and in several districts of the Bushehr province.

    [2026-07-12] @IrnaEnglish@twitter.com: IRGC: In response to the latest response to the US-Israeli enemy’s aggression, the command and control center and MQ9 drone hangars at the US Prince Hassan Air Base in Jordan have been destroyed.

    [2] The criminal US regime, by imposing its will on the Omani monarchy, attempted Saturday night to test what had already been tested, provoking several vessels in an illegal route south of the Strait of Hormuz, but was stopped by the decisive response of the naval forces.

    [3] The child-killing US military, in an attempt to compensate for this failure, launched airstrikes against a number of coastal bases and telecommunications masts along the southern shores. As we had promised, it immediately received a crushing response to its aggression.

    [4] The IRGC Aerospace Force targeted US military bases. In the first phase, they struck key military infrastructure and facilities at Jordan’s Prince Hassan Air Base, demolishing the base’s command and control center and the MQ9 drone hangars with several ballistic missiles.

    [5] Any continuation of the covenant-breaking US aggression will be met with even severer responses.
