The United States Central Command (CENTCOM) on Saturday shared a video announcing a major intensification of its military campaign, Operation Epic Fury, saying that the American forces won’t slow down and would continue to hit Iranian targets.

In a statement released on X, the military command detailed the progress of the ongoing mission, saying that the US forces have hit over 3,000 targets in the first week of Operation Epic Fury.

“US forces have struck over 3,000 targets in the first week of Operation Epic Fury, and we are not slowing down," the CENTCOM said in a post on X, while sharing a video of precision strikes hitting Tehran “surgically, overwhelmingly, and unapologetically".

This comes days after the United States and Israel carried out strikes against Iran, that targeted key government and military establishments, including the office of Supreme Leader Ayatollah Ali Khamenei and the Iranian President. The targeted strikes also killed Khamenei and his family, including his daughter and granddaughter, state media reported.

Tehran responded with a wave of missile attacks aimed at Gulf nations that host American military installations, including Qatar, Kuwait and Bahrain. Projectiles were also launched in the direction of United Arab Emirates, Saudi Arabia and Oman.

Meanwhile, US President Donald Trump has declared that there would be “no deal with Iran except unconditional surrender." Amid the escalating West Asia conflict, the US President asserted that Tehran must capitulate before any diplomatic negotiations can proceed.

In a post on Truth Social, Trump emphasised that the US and its allies, particularly Israel, would only consider an agreement with Iran after the country’s leadership completely yields and is replaced by “great & acceptable leader(s)".

“There will be no deal with Iran except UNCONDITIONAL SURRENDER! After that, and the selection of a GREAT & ACCEPTABLE Leader(s), we, and many of our wonderful and very brave allies and partners, will work tirelessly to bring Iran back from the brink of destruction, making it economically bigger, better, and stronger than ever before. IRAN WILL HAVE A GREAT FUTURE. ‘MAKE IRAN GREAT AGAIN (MIGA!),'" he had said.
