Iranian state media: "Vessels intended to pass through illegal and unsafe routes in the southern Strait of Hormuz, which the IRGC Navy confronted."

Iranian media ISNA: "Details of tonight's operation by the IRGC Navy fighters against the American aggressors will be officially released in a few hours"

I asked a senior defense official why the US has had to go back and restrike these sites that have been hit multiple times since February 28 when the war began. I was told Iran has reconstituted its air defense and missile systems along the Strait of Hormuz since the US bombing campaign ended on April 7.
That, the source said, is why the US military is now having to restrike areas like Qeshm Island and Sirik which they had struck in the past.

“In the time since the cease fire on 7 April, Iran has reconstituted — thus the targets around the Strait of Hormuz,” a senior US defense official tells me. “There is a LOT that is damaged… a LOT… but they moved things around.”

It’s been 10 weeks since the April ceasefire was announced.

This second round of strikes followed a second ship being hit by IRGC in the Strait of Hormuz at 4:30 am this morning and 9 one way attack drones being fired by Iran at a US base in Bahrain last night: US official said while confirming tonight’s round of airstrikes is complete.

Statement from Bahrain saying Iran launched drones at it early today (this may have been part of the Iranian response to the US strikes yesterday, after which the Iranian Revolutionary Guard said it attacked US deployment points in the region)

"On Friday night, Venezuelan authorities announced they would block off access to La Guaira, the epicenter of the destruction, as chaos and and traffic began to affect search efforts. Government officials said that those who wanted to enter would now have to seek official permits, but provided few details of who would be allowed to enter."

Iran signed a ceasefire agreement. We have honored it. If they have disagreements about how the MOU is being applied, they can pick up the phone.

But violence will be met with violence.

[Steve Lookner @lookner]

The Iranian Revolutionary Guard claims that in response to the new US strikes on Iran, "the Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps Navy struck the US terrorist army's deployment points in the region." Have not seen any other reports yet of Iran carrying out new strikes.
