CENTCOM said in a statement that it carried out attacks on the positions of the Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps.

The U.S. Central Command in the region says the attacks are a response to the IRGC’s attacks on commercial vessels in the Strait of Hormuz and on American forces stationed in the region.

Fars News Agency reported that explosions were heard in Konarak, Chabahar, Bandar Abbas, Sirik, and Qeshm. The media close to the IRGC has not yet identified the exact location of these explosions.
