The second wave of U.S. airstrikes began a short time ago, with reports of ongoing explosions and U.S.-Iran clashes near Qeshm Island in the Persian Gulf. Additional reports indicate two U.S. airstrikes targeted Bandar Abbas in southern Iran.

Meanwhile, Iran’s Khatam al-Anbiya Central Headquarters warned that the Armed Forces of the Islamic Republic of Iran will deliver what it described as a “crushing and decisive response” to any further U.S. military action in the region.
