CNN: U.S. military does not announce new strike on Iran after 13 straight nights

According to CNN, U.S. Central Command had been announcing strikes on Iran on an almost daily basis over the past nearly two weeks, with posts appearing for 13 consecutive nights saying it was hitting military targets inside Iran. That pattern broke on Friday night, when no such announcement was issued. BlockBeats, citing CNN on July 25, said U.S. military authorities did not announce any strike action against Iran on Friday night, which corresponded to Saturday morning Beijing time. The report noted that Central Command had repeatedly used social media to disclose operations targeting military sites in Iran, but no comparable post appeared during Friday night in U.S. Eastern Time. CNN said it remains unclear whether the absence of a public announcement means the U.S. military did not carry out any action against Iran that night. The report did not offer a definitive conclusion beyond noting the break in the run of nightly statements.
