Overnight, the US military unleashed powerful strikes against the Iranian regime. 
CENTCOM says Iranian military surveillance capabilities, along with air defense systems and communication sites, were hit. 
Speaking from the situation room, President Trump told Fox News 49 Tomahawk missiles hit locations as close as 40 miles from the capital of Tehran. 
Positions were also targeted along the southwestern part of Iran. 
The president described the strikes as violent and vicious. 
Also, President Trump says top Iranian officials called him directly, asking him to stop the bombing. 
Secretary of War Pete Hegseth spoke before the strikes began. 
>> Instead, they're going to have tap, tap, tap bombs dropping on key facilities in Iran from the United States of America. 
And that's not because uh we want to restart anything we don't have to 
restart. It's because we are uh the war department is prepared to set the terms 
to ensure that we get the kind of deal President Trump expects. 
>> In response to these strikes, the Iranians launched ballistic missiles and drones toward Gulf countries, including Kuwait and Bahrain. 
Also, the Jordanians say they shot down at least 20 Iranian ballistic missiles.
