Reports out of Iran say tonight's strikes reached three bridges around Bandar Abbas, one with cars on it and at least one person reportedly killed, plus a railway junction, a telecom tower, and a civilian airport at Iranshahr.
Iran's military central command answered within hours, threatening to level every piece of infrastructure in the region "as if it never existed."
Larry Johnson explained why that threat lands differently than it would have a year ago.
In last June's 12 day war, Iranian missiles navigated by GPS, and American and Israeli spoofing, feeding them false location data, pulled them off target.
Since February 28, by his account, they fly on BeiDou, China's independent satellite network, which Washington cannot touch and which shoots straighter.
That is his explanation for the satellite photos showing clean hits on radars, fuel pumps, and parked aircraft across the Gulf.
His map of what comes next follows the launch sites.
Kuwait and Bahrain keep absorbing fire because missiles keep leaving them, and launches left Kuwait again during this conversation.
Qatar and Saudi stay untouched because nothing flies from there.
The reported pullback of the $250 MILLION Triton drone from Jordan to Europe reads to him like the attrition already working.
His clock: a week or two before the weapons ledger forces the issue, with the Pacific commands fighting CENTCOM for every remaining missile.
