US confirms retaliatory strikes on Iran, IAEA passes resolution

The US Central Command confirmed retaliatory airstrikes against Iranian military targets after an Apache helicopter incident. President Trump stated attacks would resume due to slow negotiation progress, while the IAEA passed a resolution on Iran's uranium.
The United States Central Command (CENTCOM) confirmed the completion of retaliatory airstrikes against Iranian military targets, striking nearly 20 objectives. These actions followed the reported downing or damage of a US Apache helicopter near the Strait of Hormuz, as well as broader attacks on American forces and commercial shipping in the region. US fighter jets targeted Iranian air defense systems and ground control stations. President Donald Trump characterized the operation as a "very strong response" and stated the US would resume attacks on Iran due to "slow progress in negotiations." Separately, the International Atomic Energy Agency (IAEA) Board of Governors passed a resolution urging Iran to disclose its enriched uranium stockpiles and permit inspector access, following Iran's suspension of inspections.
