During the night, the USA and Iran exchanged blows after the incident involving the American military helicopter.
The US forces attacked the Iranian air defense systems in the Strait of Hormuz.
Official Washington called the attack “precautionary” and expressed hope that it would not interfere with the negotiations.
Iran’s military response was very quick. The IRGC carried out an attack on US military bases in the region with ATS and missiles, including the US Navy headquarters in Bahrain.
The Iranian side also distributed footage of the shooting down of the US MQ-9 Reaper ATS worth 30 million dollars during the night attack on Iran.
