The United States launched additional military strikes against Iranian positions this weekend following what the Pentagon described as an Iranian drone assault on a commercial vessel near the Strait of Hormuz. Washington accused Tehran of breaking a ceasefire agreement, prompting President Donald Trump to issue a stark warning on social media. Trump stated that if America is compelled to unleash its full military strength, the Islamic Republic of Iran would cease to exist. The strikes – reportedly heard in southern Iran and on Qeshm Island – came as Bahrain also declared it had been targeted by an Iranian drone attack. The exchange intensifies concerns over security in the strategic Strait of Hormuz, a critical corridor for global oil shipments, while broader Middle East tensions remain high.
