CENTCOM said it attacked "minelaying forces" in the Strait of Hormuz on Sunday.
President Donald Trump announced "major combat operations" against Iran on Feb. 28, with massive joint U.S.-Israeli strikes targeting military, government and infrastructure sites.
Delegations from the U.S. and Iran entered negotiations in June aimed at a war-ending deal based on a memorandum of understanding signed by both countries.
The U.S. and Iran have nonetheless continued to exchange strikes, with the strategic Strait of Hormuz as the primary flashpoint.
U.S. Central Command posted to X late on Sunday describing its strikes on Iranian targets in the Strait of Hormuz area as "limited, precise action" against Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps "minelaying forces posing an imminent threat."
"Iran created the threat and the U.S. military eliminated it to protect civilian mariners, commercial shipping, and the free flow of global commerce," CENTCOM wrote.

Jordanian air defense systems intercepted eight missiles in its airspace early Monday morning, the country's state media reported.
The Jordanian Armed Forces were able to successfully destroy the missiles before they posed any threat to citizens or property, according to the report.
The attack on Jordan came after the United States struck two Iranian rocket launch sites on Larak Island, a U.S. official said Sunday. Iran's Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps said at the time that the attack "will be responded to."
United States forces on Sunday struck two Iranian rocket launch sites on Larak Island, according to a U.S. official.
IRGC forces were observed to be preparing rockets armed with sea mines for launch into the Strait of Hormuz, according to the official.
Larak Island is a small Iranian island in the Persian Gulf at the eastern end of the Strait of Hormuz.
This attack comes after U.S. Central Command and Trump last week said that the Strait had been cleared of mines.
The official said U.S. forces are monitoring the area closely and remain prepared to protect the free flow of commerce through this essential waterway.
Iran's Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps said the U.S. military's Sunday night attack "will be responded to" and "will lead to punishment of the aggressor," according to a statement published by Iran's official news agency IRNA.
