A US official reported that US forces struck Iranian rocket launchers in a recent military action. This action broke a lull in fighting that had lasted for weeks during an intermittent war spanning over six months. The target of the strike was forces with the Revolutionary Guard Corps, who were preparing to launch rockets with sea mines.

The US military had previously cleared sea mines from international shipping routes. Sounds of explosions were reported near an island, and Iran's state broadcaster noted casualties among Iranian fighters.

Further details of the incident are available from the source, including statements from Iranian officials and additional information on the military action.
