The United States said it carried out strikes on Iranian air defense, ground-control and surveillance radar sites near the Strait of Hormuz on June 9 after a U.S. Army Apache helicopter went down in waters off Oman while on patrol. U.S. Central Command said the operation began at 5 p.m. ET and had ended by shortly before 9 p.m. ET, and said Air Force and Navy fighter jets were used.

President Donald Trump said Iran had shot down the helicopter, while a U.S. official told AP the aircraft collided with an Iranian drone; U.S. military statements said the crash remains under investigation. The two crew members were rescued by a U.S. Navy surface drone after about two hours and were in stable condition, according to the U.S. military.

Iranian state media reported explosions on Qeshm Island and in Sirik, with additional reports of blasts heard in Bandar Abbas and near Jask. Iranian Foreign Minister Abbas Araghchi said Iran would respond, and Iranian state media later reported attacks on U.S. bases and assets in the region.

The Washington Post reported Iranian media said the response included attacks linked to the U.S. Fifth Fleet in Bahrain and Ali al-Salem base in Kuwait, while Kuwait’s military said it intercepted aerial attacks and Jordan’s armed forces said they intercepted five missiles from Iran. No deaths were reported.
