US conducts tenth consecutive night of strikes on Iranian military facilities

The US has sustained a ten-day campaign of strikes against Iranian military infrastructure, coinciding with a fresh attack on a tanker in the Strait of Hormuz. While diplomatic efforts are underway, the escalation of kinetic operations suggests a significant breakdown in regional deterrence. It remains unclear if the meeting between President Trump and President Aoun will yield a de-escalation framework or further complicate the regional security architecture.
