The US military has launched new strikes on Iran after President Donald Trump said US forces would hit the country "hard" after both sides exchanged fire earlier this week.
The US Central Command (Centcom) said it began "additional self-defense strikes" at 17:15 Eastern time (21:15 GMT) on Wednesday against "multiple targets in Iran at the Commander in Chief's direction".
"The strikes are in response to Iran's unwarranted and continued aggression," it added.
The US also launched strikes on Iran on Tuesday after Trump said Tehran had downed a US Army helicopter. Iran's Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps (IRGC) said it responded with strikes on US bases in the region.
