Iran's IRGC claims it targeted US command center in Syria, state media reports
The IRGC said it destroyed U.S. radar and helicopters and killed a large number of Americans in a retaliatory strike.
- Early Friday, The Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps said it struck a United States special operations command center in Syria, claiming it destroyed a radar system and several helicopters in retaliation for seven soldiers killed.
- The strike followed a United States attack on Bampur, near Iranshahr in southeastern Iran, where seven soldiers were killed early Wednesday. The Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps described the operation as a "surprise attack" conducted in retaliation for this loss.
- Central Command reported completing a "major wave" of attacks on Iran at 9:40 p.m. EDT Thursday, targeting military logistics and coastal surveillance. President Donald Trump warned on Tuesday that strikes would include civilian targets, stating, "Next week comes the bridges."
- State-Run media reported that Iran also attacked United States bases and assets in Kuwait and Bahrain in response to the strikes. Early Friday, a tanker in the Strait of Hormuz was struck by an unknown projectile, causing minor port-side damage with all crew safe.
- While the war began in late February with the Trump administration seeking to dismantle Iran's nuclear weapons program, the conflict now centers on the Strait of Hormuz. President Donald Trump seeks to restore freedom of navigation, while Iran fights to maintain leverage through disruption.
