U.S. Central Command @CENTCOM U.S. Central Command (CENTCOM) forces began launching self-defense strikes against Iran at 5 p.m. ET today at the Commander in Chief’s direction, in response to yesterday’s downing of a U.S. Army Apache helicopter. The mission is a proportional response to unjustified Iranian aggression. Last edited 2:18 PM · Jun 9, 2026 https://x.com/CENTCOM/status/2064457103134343170
