Washington: The United States military completed a "heavy wave" of strikes against Iran on Wednesday, the US Central Command (CENTCOM) said as Washington resumed attacks on Tehran after a lull.


CENTCOM said late Wednesday that its forces "completed a heavy wave of strikes against Iran in response to yesterday's attempted missile attacks on U.S. forces," and struck dozens of Islamic Revolutionary Guard targets, including military command centers.


A US attack killed three people, including a two-year-old, on Iran's Qeshm island, the Fars news agency reported on Thursday after the US military said it wrapped up a heavy wave of strikes.

"A US attack on a residential home in the Chah Tangu neighbourhood of Qeshm killed three members of a family: the father, the mother, and their 2-year-old child," Fars reported, citing the Hormozgan University of Medical Sciences, adding that two other children were injured.
