The U.S. Central Command has unleashed havoc on Iran in the last 24 hours. Hundreds of missiles launched from American warships have devastated cities in Iran, all under the umbrella of 'Operation Epic Fury'. CENTCOM has started sharing images and footage of these attacks on social media, bringing to light the reality behind Iran's claims.
On the social media platform X, the official CENTCOM handle @CENTCOM has posted an update. Written by Admiral Brad Cooper, the Chief of Central Command, the post reads - The first 24 hours of Operation Epic Fury - The President has ordered significant action, and our brave soldiers, sailors, airmen, marines, guardians, and coast guardsmen are executing this order - Admiral Brad Cooper, CENTCOM Commander.
Previously, Central Command released footage of the missile strikes on Iran and the destruction that ensued. A warning had been issued to the Iranian government. CENTCOM is now taking swift and decisive action as directed.
The Iranian government had the chance, yet they refused to negotiate — and now they face the consequences. For almost fifty years, Iran has targeted and killed Americans, relentlessly pursuing the world's most formidable weapons to advance their radical agenda. Last night, in a break from any previous president, President Trump began to address this threat.
Before this, Central Command shared a lengthy post from U.S. Secretary of War Pete Hegseth, elucidating the Department of War's actions and the immediate reasons for initiating Operation Epic Fury. In the post, Secretary of War Pete Hegseth wrote - Overnight, under orders from President Trump, the Department of War launched Operation Epic Fury — the most dangerous, challenging, and precise aerial operation in history.
We will not tolerate powerful missiles targeting the American people. Those missiles, along with Iran's missile production, will be obliterated. The Iranian navy will be decimated, and as President Trump has consistently stated, Iran will never possess nuclear weapons.
The United States did not start this fight, but we will finish it. If you harm or threaten Americans anywhere in the world — as Iran has done — we will find you, and we will eliminate you. Our warriors are the best in the world, fully prepared to accomplish our mission. May God protect them in this crucial mission.
America Shares a Fact Check on the War
Additionally, Central Command shared a fact check on the America-Iran conflict. It's stated that Iran's regime claimed to have killed 50 American soldiers, yet U.S. casualties are zero.
The IRGC's claim that missiles were launched at a U.S. Navy ship is false. No such attack happened on any American warship. The armada remains fully operational.
