U.S. Central Command said it began a third consecutive night of strikes against Iran at 4:45 p.m. Eastern time today, at President Trump's direction. The command said the strikes would continue "imposing a heavy cost on Iranian forces" and degrade their ability to attack civilians and commercial shipping in the Strait of Hormuz. Strikes were reported in Isfahan in central Iran, Zanjan in the northwest, Mashhad in the northeast, and Bandar Abbas on the southern coast, according to sources.

President Trump said the United States would strike Iran hard tonight and tomorrow, in an interview on the Hugh Hewitt Show. Trump said the memorandum of understanding the United States had signed with Iran "was a test, and they did not comply with it." Asked whether the United States was looking to target Pickaxe Mountain, Trump said there was a chance. "Pickaxe is a possible target for a nice, big, fat shot right in the front door," he said. Pickaxe Mountain, or Kuh-e Kolang Gaz La, is a deeply buried tunnel complex about a mile south of Iran's Natanz nuclear site that Tehran has been building since 2020 and to which IAEA inspectors have never been granted access. Analysts assess it may be intended to store Iran's stockpile of near weapons grade enriched uranium or to allow covert enrichment, and it was left untouched in earlier strikes on Iran's nuclear program. Trump called Iran's leadership "violent" and said his administration wanted to help the Iranian people, telling them, "We have people ready, willing, and able, but they have to know what you want to do, and that's up to you."

The U.S. Embassy in Abu Dhabi and the U.S. Consulate General in Dubai canceled all consular appointments from July 13 to 15, citing the regional security situation. Americans with appointments on those dates were told not to come to the embassy or consulate and that they would be contacted to reschedule, the embassy said. The embassy and consulate remain on ordered-departure status, with non-emergency U.S. government personnel relocated outside the UAE, leaving only limited consular assistance available. Americans needing passport or other consular services were directed to contact the mission through its online Citizen Services Navigator. All routine U.S. visa services in the UAE remain suspended.
