US completes another night of strikes against Iran

The Pentagon says it targeted military operations centers, maritime capabilities, aircraft hangars, drone storage, and logistics infrastructure.

At the same time, the IRGC announced that Iran's operation to "punish the American aggressors" — launched early this morning — is still ongoing.

This marks the 11th consecutive night of clashes between the US and Iran.

🇺🇸🇮🇷 Why Are U.S. Air Defenses Struggling to Stop Iranian Missiles?

The U.S. and its allies have deployed some of the world's most advanced missile defenses, including THAAD and Patriot, yet Iranian missiles have still managed to penetrate the defensive shield.

The issue may not be that Patriot or THAAD are completely ineffective. The bigger challenges include large missile salvos, limited interceptor stocks, short reaction times and possible damage to radars and air defense infrastructure.

Iran may also be attempting to overwhelm the network through saturation attacks, forcing defenders to spend expensive interceptors against waves of incoming missiles.

The key question is no longer whether U.S. air defenses can intercept Iranian missiles. They can.

The real question is whether the U.S. and its allies have enough interceptors, radars and operational launchers to sustain the defense during a prolonged missile war.

🇺🇸Trump just put a number on his own Hormuz toll plan. 2 billion dollars a day to reopen the strait.

🇨🇳China's Foreign Ministry pushed back immediately: "The Strait was open before the war. The root of the problem lies in your illegal actions against Iran. You have created a global crisis out of nothing."

This is the 2 biggest economies on earth publicly disputing who owns the blame, and the bill, for the chokepoint carrying 30% of the world's seaborne crude.

Reporter: There are no signs that Iran is ready to stop fighting. So, what is the plan?

Trump: How would you know? How would you know if there are no signs? Why?

Why do you know something that I don’t know?

You don’t know what dialogue is taking place behind the scenes. They want to meet desperately to try and end it.

Iran keeps landing painful blows on US assets in the Gulf

Over the past 9 nights, Iran has shown a credible ability to strike high-value US assets with precision, targeting critical enablers like radars, tankers, and drones

These losses degrade American air operations and ISR capabilities in the theater:

🔸Long-range radar, several aerial refueling tankers destroyed at Al Udeid Air Base (Qatar)

🔸C-17 transport, P-8 command aircraft damaged in Jordan; fighter jets hit at Muwaffaq Salti Air Base

🔸3 MQ-9 Reaper drones, 1 Lucas drone shot down in the last 24 hours alone

🔸At least 3 more US soldiers killed, bringing total US fatalities to 17 and wounded to over 430

Strikes on bases in Kuwait, Bahrain, and Jordan also destroyed multiple hangars, radar sites, ammunition depots, fuel storage facilities, and communication centers, with extensive aftermath footage circulating online
