Donald Trump has resumed a bombing campaign against Iran, which includes limited and defensive strikes on Iran's Qeshm Island in the Strait of Hormuz. Amid fears of further strikes, the Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps released footage showing a vast tunnel network lined with anti-ship cruise missiles. The Pentagon is also sending additional Patriot systems to Israel to increase its missile defenses.
