US attacks Iran - In response to attack on a cargo ship in the Strait of Hormuz
The US military struck Iran in response to an Iranian drone attack on a cargo ship in the Strait of Hormuz, with each country accusing the other of violating the terms of a ceasefire agreed to last week.
U.S. Central Command said the jets struck missile and drone storage sites and coastal radar sites, later releasing a black-and-white video of an explosion labeled “unclassified.” A U.S. official reported that the operation had ended.
Iran said a missile hit the area around a pier in Sirik in southern Iran and that Iranian naval forces responded by striking US military targets in the region. Tehran did not provide details about what may have been hit.
Tehran has said it will control the Strait of Hormuz and warned Gulf states not to side with Washington after Thursday's attack on a cargo ship sailing off the coast of Oman. President Donald Trump blamed Iran for the attack and said the attack violated last week's interim agreement.
"The unprovoked aggression against merchant vessels by Iranian forces clearly violated the ceasefire," US Central Command said in its statement announcing the strikes, which it called "a forceful response to yesterday's attack on a merchant vessel transiting the Strait of Hormuz."
The US military said it would continue to provide "coordination and safe passage support" for commercial vessels passing through the strait.
Iran's Revolutionary Guard said that in response, its navy "attacked the places where the US terrorist army is stationed in the region" and warned that any further US attack would be met with a broader response, according to the statement carried on state media.
