CENTCOM completed its sixth consecutive night of strikes against Iran, hitting six highway and railway bridges in Hormozgan province and destroying the Chabahar port control tower. Cutting the key logistics corridor connecting Bandar Abbas, Iran’s primary port, to central Iran. The U.S. also disabled the oil tanker M/T Belma with Hellfire missiles after it violated the naval blockade heading for Kharg Island. Trump revealed that Iran fired over 100 missiles at the USS Abraham Lincoln in a single hour — and every one was intercepted.
