The US-Israel coalition's offensive against Iran has entered its 87th day. Today, the US military conducted self-defense strikes on missile launch sites and minelaying vessels in southern Iran. The US Central Command stated these strikes were intended to protect forces from threats posed by Iranian military assets. Simultaneously, Iranian negotiators have arrived in Doha to discuss a potential ceasefire, though both sides remain divided on the terms.
