U.S.-Israel Strikes on Iran: Limited or Endless?

0:00You're listening to Global News today, powered by the Daily News Now. Defense Secretary Pete Hankseth assured the public Monday that the ongoing U.S. and Israeli strikes on Iran are focused and limited, unlike past. In-list wars, he stressed the mission aims to neutralize Iranian ballistic missiles, wipe out their navy, and prevent any nuclear development. President Trump echoed this, highlighting Iran's rapidly growing missile program as a major threat to American forces abroad. Here this week, officials revealed the strikes followed last-use attacks that already devastated Iran's nuclear sights. Hankseth pointed to Iran's drones and missiles as the real dangers, saying they created a shield for future threats. No signs of an imminent Iranian preemptive attack appeared in U.S. intelligence before the operation began. The human toll is mounting, with four American troops killed so far and leaders predicting more casualties ahead. These of the fallen received heartfelt tributes from top officials.

A shocking mishap added to the chaos when Kuwait forces accidentally shot down three American F-15E strike-eagle jets during a mission. All six pilots ejected safely and are stable. Hankseth confirmed no U.S. boots on the ground any Iran yet, but refused to rule out future ground involvement. Over 1,000 targets have been hit so far, including cyber operations disrupting Iranian communications. Trump estimates the operation could last four to five weeks, though it might extend. Upcoming briefings for Congress signal the situation remains fluid. D&N is sponsored by our partner, check out the episode description. It looks like a pillow. It sounds like headphones.
