Within the past hour, IRGC forces fired on commercial shipping in the Strait of Hormuz. U.S. aircraft have shot down an Iranian cruise missile and one-way attack drone, CENTCOM spokesman Capt. Tim Hawkins tells CNN.
Kuwait reports attacks on border & oil infrastructure. Three northern border posts sustained material damage, while a hostile drone struck an offshore Kuwait Oil Company drilling platform, damaging it and injuring one worker.
Iran claims strike on U.S. HIMARS in Kuwait. Iranian state affiliated Fars claims IRGC drones destroyed U.S. HIMARS launchers and associated missile storage containers in Kuwait. The claim remains unconfirmed.
CENTCOM separately denied Iranian reports that three U.S. troops were killed, saying all personnel were accounted for.
Israel remains outside renewed U.S. & Iran fighting. An Israeli official said Jerusalem is closely monitoring the exchange but remains uninvolved. Israel would reportedly enter if Washington requests assistance or Iran directly attacks Israeli targets or civilians.
ADDITIONAL INFO: U.S. targets Iranian systems around Hormuz. The latest U.S. strikes targeted Iranian missile and air defense systems and IRGC fast boats at several locations around the Strait of Hormuz. Iranian media reported explosions east of Bandar Abbas and along coastal Qeshm.
Iranian media alleges Gulf support for U.S. strikes. Fars used the reported deployment of a U.S. E-3 in Saudi Arabia and more than 20 KC-135 tankers at Al Udeid in Qatar to allege both states supported the strikes.
Iran’s joint command warned that the source of attacks against Iran constitutes a “legitimate target.” The flight activity alone does not confirm participation in a specific strike.

Qatar reports three people injured, including a child, were injured by falling debris generated during the interception of Iranian attacks. All three are receiving medical care, while government services continue normally.
Oman rescued 23 crew members from the Cyprus flagged GFS GALAXY after the vessel was disabled near Musandam. One crew member remains missing.
CENTCOM says an Iranian attack caused an engine room fire and severe damage aboard the vessel.
Strike reported near Khondab nuclear complex.
An Iranian provincial official confirmed that a location in Khondab County, near the Arak heavy water complex, was struck by projectiles.
Assessment teams are examining casualties and damage. Iran has not confirmed that a nuclear facility was hit.

On it.
It looks like Conflict Radar combined CENTCOM’s new announcement with locations reported at different times today. I could be wrong though and these are new, new, "new" strikes today, in same location. Which is not like that hasn't happened before so not willing to rule it out yet as new.
A U.S. official says a “bigger” wave of American strikes against Iranian military targets is expected Sunday night than those carried out earlier in the day, according to The New York Times.
I can't find official sources yet. But local sources on ground reporting. As we speak operations, new, new, new ones ongoing.

Multiple Strikes are reportedly occurring in Khuzestan province which contains major oil fields, pipelines, refineries, and petrochemical complexes.
Might be moving target lists to energy and infrastructure targets.
