US Carries Out Fresh Strikes on Iran, Targets Air Defence System

What's behind this

The United States military carried out fresh limited strikes on Iran, targeting an Iranian air‑defence system near the strategically important Strait of Hormuz, President Donald Trump confirmed. Iranian state media said two explosions were heard in the Suza area of Qeshm Island, a key oil‑shipping waterway. Trump also said Washington is talking to Iran while his administration imposed sanctions on eight Canadian firms accused of moving money for Tehran via cryptocurrency. He later claimed his intervention was crucial to the region’s survival. US officials noted that most of Iran’s air‑defence systems were destroyed or severely degraded during a June 2025 Israeli bombardment.
