The provided text doesn’t specify the exact US actions regarding Iran strikes. If we assume the question targets recent or notable events up to 2024, the US has historically used several measures.
1. **Diplomatic Actions**: The US imposed sanctions on Iranian individuals, entities, and sectors like oil, defense, and financial institutions. This aimed to pressure Iran’s nuclear program and regional activities. 2. **Military Posturing**: The US conducted military exercises in the Persian Gulf and deployed naval assets. This signaled readiness and deterred aggression. 3. **Targeted Strikes**: The US carried out limited strikes on Iranian-backed targets in Syria and Iraq. These occurred in 2018 and 2020 in response to attacks on US personnel. 4. **Cyber Operations**: The US allegedly engaged in cyber operations against Iran’s infrastructure. The Stuxnet incident in 2010 is a known example, though such operations are often unacknowledged publicly. 5. **Arms Embargoes and Export Controls**: The US enforced restrictions on the transfer of technology and materials. These restrictions supported efforts to curb Iran’s military or nuclear programs.
To refine the answer, please provide a specific timeframe or event, such as "January 2020" or "the 2020 U.S. strike on Qasem Soleimani."
