In response to these documented attacks, CENTCOM affirmed that it remains “vigilant and measured” in its posture. The command stated that it continues to defend its forces and interests against what it characterizes as aggression. These reports provide a summary of recent military confrontations, detailing the specific types of assets launched by Iran and the subsequent interception efforts undertaken by coalition forces.
