U.S. & Israel Strike Iran, Sink Warships

0:00On March 4th, U.S. and Israeli forces in Operation Epic Fury took out the leader of an Iranian unit linked to a plot against former President Donald. Trump, Pentagon officials confirmed this week. War Secretary Pete Hexf shared the news during a briefing alongside Joint Chiefs Chairman General Dan Cain. The strike happened early in the campaign, which targets Iran's missiles, drones, naval assets, and nuclear sites. The operation kicked off on February 28th under U.S. Central Command and has already hammered more than 2,000 targets. Missile launches dropped 86 percent from day one, with another 23 percent dip in the last day. Drone attacks fell 73 percent overall, as strikes shift from long range to close-end precision hits. Hexf pointed out that after Iran's threats tied to the 2024 Butler rally shooting, this feels like payback. Officials stressed the focus stays on protecting Americans and allies from those threats. In the maritime front, U.S. forces sank over 20 Iranian vessels, including a warship taken down by a Navy submarine's Mark 48 torpedo.

1:05Ola, first such enemy combatant sinking since World War II, they've seized control of Iranian airspace in under a week. With waterways secure and pressure mounting on lost sites and leadership, the effort aims to block Iran's power projection and nuclear path without. Rebuilding the country, expect the operation to keep rolling strong.
