Iran blocks Strait of Hormuz, fires on commercial ships
Iran blocked the Strait of Hormuz and fired on commercial ships, citing US 'breach of promise'. The US responded by continuing to block Iranian ships, with President Trump stating that talks were ongoing.
Iran blocked the Strait of Hormuz and began firing on commercial ships, accusing the US of 'banditry and piracy'. This move came a day after Iran's Foreign Minister said the strait was open following a cease-fire in Lebanon. Iranian gunboats fired on a tanker, and a container ship was hit by an unknown projectile. The US continued to block Iranian ships, with President Trump stating that talks were ongoing but Iran 'got a little cute'. The UK Maritime Traffic Organization reported that the tanker and crew were safe, with no fires or environmental damage reported.
