US Strikes Expand to Tabriz and Tehran Vicinity as Iran Campaign Reaches Eleventh Night

US forces struck Iran for an eleventh consecutive night on July 21, with explosions in Tabriz, northwest Iran — a shift from the earlier focus on the south and the Strait of Hormuz, a vital shipping chokepoint. Air defense activity was also reported near Tehran. CENTCOM says the campaign aims to degrade Iran's ability to threaten commercial shipping through Hormuz.
