The 27-word announcement came via social media at 2:48 p.m. Thursday with minimal fanfare — the United States had conducted “a new wave of strikes for the sixth consecutive night to further degrade Iranian military capabilities.” Any pretense that the tenuous peace deal between the U.S. and Iran was alive, if not on life support, appears to be well and truly over.

Prior to that, U.S. Central Command had publicly announced that the U.S. military had carried out waves of strikes every day since Saturday. President Donald Trump has indicated the strikes would continue as well.
