the statement said.<\/p>\n<p>The developments came after Iranian media reported a new wave of US strikes late Wednesday targeting several locations in southern and southeastern Iran.<\/p>\n<p>US Central Command said American forces had launched additional strikes against Iran to further degrade its ability to threaten freedom of navigation in the Strait of Hormuz.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.aa.com.tr\/en\/middle-east\/iran-army-says-it-targets-us-military-infrastructure-in-kuwait-qatar-bahrain\/3992614\">Source\u00a0<\/a><\/p>\n<div align=\"center\"><iframe loading=\"lazy\" style=\"border: none;
