CENTCOM says Hormuz strike package is complete

CENTCOM posted that U.S. forces completed self-defense strikes against Iranian air-defense, ground-control and surveillance-radar sites near the Strait of Hormuz using Air Force and Navy fighter jets. The release framed the operation as proportional after recent attacks on U.S. forces and commercial shipping.

Why this matters. The completion statement narrows Washington's public claim to limited military infrastructure near Hormuz, but it does not settle damage, Iranian casualties, or the follow-on retaliation claim. The watchpoint is whether the U.S. treats this as closed or launches another wave after Iran reports a counterstrike.
