US Air Strikes on Iran Just Hit Night Nine in a Row

Original version ·

Nine consecutive nights of airstrikes is no longer an incident — at this point, it's practically a shared daily routine between Washington and Tehran.

CENTCOM just confirmed another wave of strikes landed across Iran. The official goal is straightforward enough: take out the launchers and hardware being used to harass commercial ships in the Strait of Hormuz.

The wild part is the strategic messaging. Donald Trump noted that the military has already reached its core goals, so naturally, the strikes will now intensify just to coax everyone back to the bargaining table faster.

Nothing builds mutual trust at a diplomatic negotiation quite like nine straight nights of incoming cruise missiles.
