The U.S. military said it hit several Iranian sites on Saturday after President Donald Trump ordered the attacks, a move that followed an Iranian drone strike on a container vessel in the Strait of Hormuz and a separate assault on a ship near the waterway earlier that day. In a post on the social‑media platform X, U.S. Central Command noted that Iran had the opportunity to comply with the interim cease‑fire agreement that the two sides reached but instead chose actions that violated it. The latest U.S. strikes are presented as a response to those Iranian attacks and raise concerns that the fragile cease‑fire could unravel, potentially widening the regional conflict.
