CENTCOM Commander Cooper Details Scale of US-Israeli Operations: 2,000+ Targets Struck, 17 Iranian Ships Sunk
CENTCOM Commander Admiral Brad Cooper released a comprehensive video update revealing that joint U.S.-Israeli strikes have hit over 2,000 targets with over 2,000 munitions, including surgical B-1 and B-2 bomber strikes inside Iran, sinking 17 Iranian ships — including Iran's most advanced submarine — and destroying hundreds of Iranian ballistic missiles and drones. The U.S. force includes more than 50,000 troops, 200 fighter jets, two carrier strike groups, and B-2, B-1, and B-52 bombers, with Iran's remaining mobile ballistic missile launchers actively being tracked and hunted. Iran has responded with over 500 ballistic missiles and more than 2,000 drones, with Cooper stating Iran is indiscriminately targeting civilian infrastructure. U.S. Army Task Force Scorpion Strike (TFSS) employed LUCAS one-way attack drones and PrSM deep-strike missiles against targets inside Iran.
