The attacks mark the eighth consecutive day that U.S. forces have bombed Iran. The latest fatalities pushed the American military death toll from the conflict to 16.
The attacks on Iran’s infrastructure came on the sixth consecutive day of U.S. strikes. A retaliatory attack by Iran caused damage to a power and desalination plant in Kuwait.

The president suggested talks could continue amid military strikes, but analysts say a deeply flawed preliminary truce deal poses obstacles for negotiators.
