US Strikes Iranian Missile Sites with 5,000-Pound 'Bunker-Buster' Bombs Near Strait of Hormuz

• US Central Command deployed multiple 5,000-pound "deep penetrator munitions" on Iranian missile sites.
• The strikes targeted hardened Iranian missile sites along Iran’s coastline near the Strait of Hormuz.
• The Iranian anti-ship cruise missiles in these sites posed a risk to international shipping in the strait.
• The "bunker-buster" munitions indicate the strikes aimed at fortified or underground launch and storage sites.
• The operation signals an effort to degrade Iran’s ability to target ships and potentially reopen the critical energy corridor.
