WASHINGTON, July 13 (Reuters) - The U.S. military said late on Monday its forces have ‌completed their latest wave of strikes on Iran ‌that the U.S. Central Command began earlier in the day at ​the direction of President Donald Trump.

• "During the five-hour mission, U.S. forces successfully struck military targets across Iran including Bushehr, Chah Bahar, Jask, Konarak, Abu Musa, and Bandar Abbas," the ‌Central Command said ⁠in a statement on X.

• It marked a third consecutive night of strikes against Iran ⁠as Trump said he was reinstating a blockade of Iranian shipping while proposing to charge a 20% fee to ​guard ​the Strait of Hormuz.

• Iran's ​top joint military command ‌said the U.S. had no role in determining the future of the waterway and would not be allowed to intervene.

• Iran announced over the weekend it was closing the vital waterway.

• The Iran war began when the ‌U.S. and Israel attacked Iran ​on February 28 and Iran responded ​with its own ​strikes on Israel and Gulf states that ‌host U.S. bases.

• U.S.-Israeli strikes ​on Iran and ​Israeli attacks on Lebanon during the war have killed thousands and displaced millions.

• The war has ​also spiked oil ‌prices and shaken markets around the world.
