WASHINGTON, July 16 (Xinhua) -- The United States launched another round of strikes against Iran on Thursday, the U.S. Central Command said in a statement.
"At 2 p.m. ET today, U.S. forces began conducting a new wave of strikes against Iran for the sixth consecutive night to further degrade Iranian military capabilities," the statement said.
The developments came amid days of clashes between the United States and Iran despite a U.S.-Iran peace memorandum of understanding signed in mid-June, under which the two sides were expected to begin negotiations within 60 days toward a final agreement. ■
