Has the countdown to ground war in Iran begun, what are Trump’s preparations?

July 18, 2026 by Uma Shankar

American attacks are being carried out on Iran for 7 consecutive nights, but the question is whether America is only carrying out air strikes or the ground is also being prepared for a major ground operation? Bridges, roads, tunnels and military logistics around Bandar Abbas are under continuous attack. Iranian MPs are claiming that America’s new strategy is to capture the islands of the Persian Gulf. On the other hand, American refueling tankers are continuously reaching Israel and the attacks have now spread to central Iran. After all, what is Trump’s master plan?

all night iran Echoes of explosions were heard in different parts of the city. Gunpowder rained on Iran the whole night. The scope of American attacks continued to expand in Hormozgan, Bandar Abbas, Jask, Qeshm, Sirik, Bushehr, Lar, Ahvaz, Yazd and Khorramabad. Somewhere missile bases came under target. At some places maritime capabilities were attacked and at other places there were reports of damage to basic facilities like electricity and water.

CENTCOM’s announcement, more deadly operations ahead

CENTCOM also made it clear that their campaign, which has reached the seventh consecutive night, will become more deadly with each passing night and now the new target of America’s air strikes is Iran’s military logistics, surveillance system, underground weapons stores and maritime capabilities, that is, now CENTCOM has started the biggest campaign to cut Iran’s supply line.

But the question is, are these just air strikes or is there some other bigger strategy behind it? Because the pattern of attacks now seems to be changing.

Meanwhile, the Axios report says that the Donald Trump administration is sending additional aerial refueling aircraft to Israel, so that the capacity of long-term air operations can be increased.

Why is America breaking the communication route?

Not only this, Iranian MP Amir Hossein Sabeti has claimed that America is not only carrying out air strikes, but is also preparing the ground for a possible ground operation on the strategic islands of the Persian Gulf. According to him, the purpose of the attacks on transportation and logistics networks is to stop the movement of Iranian forces and isolate the islands from the mainland.

On the other hand, Mujtaba Khamenei’s military advisor Mohsin Rizai has also warned that if American troops land on Iranian soil, they will have to face continuous waves of drones and missiles.

Now the biggest question is that if this entire operation is a preparation for some big military target, then why is Bandar Abbas and its surrounding areas the target again and again? After all, what is there in this port, which America is continuously attacking to cut it.

Why Bandar Abbas the target?

Bandar Abbas is the largest and most important strategic port of Iran. The most important center of military logistics and maritime activities on the southern coast of Iran. Currently, under Trump’s master plan, connectivity with this very Bandar Abbas is being cut off. Is associated with Bandar Abbas. Bandar Abbas-Sirjan Highway, this highway connects Bandar Abbas with central and northern Iran.

This is Shahid Mirzai Tunnel, this tunnel is an important part of the connection going north from Bandar Abbas, but after the American attack, this tunnel has been closed. Now take a look at Rudkhane Shur Bridge. After this bridge was targeted, there was a major impact on the traffic on this route and communication was disrupted. And this is Minab-Rudan Bridge, it is part of the main route connecting Bandar Abbas with eastern and north-eastern areas. After this attack, another communication line has been broken.

As part of a well-thought-out strategy, America has destroyed all these bridges and tunnels around Bandar Abbas one by one, so that the movement of the Iranian army in this entire area can be stopped and the supply of military logistics to these sea bases can be completely disrupted.

2 important bridges collapsed near Bandar Abbas

CENTCOM destroyed two important bridges near Bandar Abbas in Hormozgan. 1 tunnel was blown up and such devastation was seen in Iran the morning after this attack. Broken structures of bridges are visible somewhere. At some places, big potholes have formed on the roads. Traffic has completely stopped on many main routes originating from Bandar Abbas. The situation is so serious that local officials of Hormozgan have appealed to people not to undertake non-essential travel.

Citizens have been advised to stay away from highways and major roads, as there is a possibility of more attacks here, not just on military bases. Now even the highways of Iran’s cities are on high alert, but the Iranian government wants to hide the damage caused by these attacks from the eyes of the world.

According to a report, Iran’s Supreme National Security Council has instructed media organizations to limit coverage of damage caused to civilian infrastructure. The report claims that people have been asked to avoid disseminating more pictures or information about damaged places, impact on public services and damage.

Attack on Iran’s supply line

But what is it in Bandar Abbas that America is bombing so much to block its routes and how the entire military supplies reach Qeshm, Larak and Hormuz Strait from here. Now understand this.

Now understand why Bandar Abbas is so important? The bulk of military supplies pass through Iran’s largest military logistics hub to military bases in the Persian Gulf and Iran’s strategic islands.

From here, weapons, fuel and other important military supplies are transported to Qeshm Island through sea route. Bandar Abbas is also important for the Strait of Hormuz. To dominate the world’s most important sea route, Iran monitors it from Bandar Abbas.

Iran’s Larak Island is also part of this maritime network. Military supplies reach here from Bandar Abbas. Now if the logistics and supplies going through Bandar Abbas are continuously disrupted, the capability of the IRGC deployed on these islands will be affected.

Attack on Iran’s military network

On this basis, Iranian MP Amirhossein Sabeti has claimed that the purpose of these attacks could be to ease the way for ground operations on these islands in the future.

But the attacks are not limited to Bandar Abbas only. Now America’s attacks have reached deeper into Iran, for the first time after about 40 days of war, Yazd in central Iran was targeted. The attack took place on the hills where Iran is said to have modern missile bases and underground weapons stores.

This means that now the target is not only the logistics of the coastal areas, but also the strategic military capability present deep inside Iran. Meanwhile, American aerial refueling tankers are continuously arriving in Israel. Such aircraft are considered very important for conducting continuous air operations over long distances. From this it is believed that the Trump administration has made full preparations for a long-range and major attack inside Iran.
