Trump’s military destroys five Iranian attack drones as US and Tehran trade heavy blows

US forces under President Trump moved swiftly to crush an Iranian drone attack, shooting down multiple hostile drones in a decisive defensive strike.

The Iranian drones were intercepted before reaching US positions near the Strait of Hormuz in a high-stakes escalation.

An anonymous CENTCOM official said the actions were “measured, purely defensive and intended to maintain the ceasefire.”

In a separate move, US forces struck an Iranian ground control site linked to ongoing drone operations.
