The United States Central Command said Tuesday night that it successfully struck over 80 targets with precision munitions after Tehran targeted three vessels in the Strait of Hormuz.

The U.S. said Iran's strikes were on commercial vessels that were transiting the strait, which were "crewed by innocent civilians in an international waterway." Reports indicate the ships were from Qatar, Saudi Arabia and the United Arab Emirates.

Central Command said the latest round of offensive strikes against Iran struck Iranian air defense systems, command and control networks, coastal radar sites, anti-ship missile capabilities and more than 60 Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps small boats.

The strikes were intended to "degrade Iran’s ability to continue attacking international commerce flowing through the international trade corridor," CENTCOM said in a social media post.

"The unwarranted aggression by Iranian forces is a clear and dangerous violation of the ceasefire and undermines freedom of navigation," the military said. "CENTCOM forces remain postured and prepared to hold Iran accountable when the agreement is not adhered to or obeyed."

The strikes come after the U.S. and Iran signed a "memorandum of understanding" last month, which said both sides have committed to “negotiating and achieving the final deal in a maximum 60 days, extended with mutual consent.”

The U.S. and Iran are set to meet on July 11 in Islamabad, Pakistan, to discuss further peace talks.
