Renewed US attacks aim to force diplomatic progress through military might

CENTCOM said forces began launching strikes against multiple targets in Iran. As per Trump and Hegseth over the last few hours, saying that the reason for new renewed attacks was that the pace of the negotiations was not moving fast enough. Hegseth said he was trying to create diplomatic space, and he was going to do it using bombs. So you can see that they say this is about defence and it’s a response to what the Iranians did in response to the Americans 24 hours ago.
