The U.S. military said on July 12 that it had completed its third round of military strikes against Iran this week, bringing the total number of targets hit to more than 300, according to BlockBeats. In the latest operation, U.S. forces used land-based and carrier-based fighter jets, drones and naval vessels, striking about 140 Iranian military targets with precision munitions.
The reported targets included missile and drone bases, naval capability facilities, ammunition storage sites, communications networks and coastal surveillance locations. U.S. Central Command said the strikes were carried out under instructions issued earlier in the week.
The statement also said commercial shipping was still moving through the Strait of Hormuz, describing the international maritime corridor as still open to traffic despite the continued escalation in military confrontation.
The latest operation followed earlier strikes this week on about 90 coastal targets in Iran and another 170 military targets. It marked the third large-scale U.S. military action against Iran in the same week.
