U.S. strikes Iran missile sites on Larak Island

U.S. forces struck Iranian launchers in the Strait of Hormuz, the first publicly acknowledged attack on Tehran’s forces in nearly a month as the Trump administration navigates a tenuous ceasefire.

Iranian forces were preparing to fire rockets from Larak Island, in the country’s south, that would have dispersed sea mines into the strait, said Navy Capt. Tim Hawkins, a spokesman for Central Command.
