    The US military on Saturday conducted additional strikes against multiple targets in Iran. The US launched an additional round of strikes after Iran attacked another ship in the Strait of Hormuz on Saturday. Per CENTCOM: U.S. Central Command (CENTCOM) forces conducted additional strikes against multiple targets in Iran, June 27, at the Commander in Chief’s direction.

    Tehran is using force to gain control over traffic through the Strait. The best selling point for President Trump’s memorandum of understanding with Iran was that at least it opened the Strait of Hormuz. Well, now the regime is trying to nullify those terms by using force against commercial vessels, Gulf states and U.S. bases. All of this violates the deal... On Thursday Iran struck a container ship transiting the Strait with a drone. The U.S. responded on Friday with strikes on Iranian missile and drone storage sites and coastal radars. It announced the strike after markets closed as if...

    Iran doubled down on its control of the Strait of Hormuz Sunday — declaring on state-run TV that all ships must get permission from the Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps before sailing through the critical choke point. The announcement followed Iranian attacks on two ships that were transiting the strait in recent days — prompting strikes by the US, and tit-for-tat retaliation by the Islamic republic.The violence threatened to unravel the delicate peace deal less than a week after the two sides met in Switzerland for talks on a permanent agreement. President Trump accused Iran of violating the cease-fire and warned...

    Iran attacked another vessel in the Strait of Hormuz Saturday, and the U.S. wasted little time striking back. The American military carried out operations Friday night, but Saturday’s response was described as bigger. United States Central Command (CENTCOM) said on social media that the airstrikes were “at the Commander in Chief’s direction”: After yesterday’s U.S. strikes in response to the Iranian attack on M/V Ever Lovely, Iran was given a chance to honor the ceasefire agreement but elected not to when its forces launched a one-way attack drone that hit M/T Kiku this morning at 4:30 a.m. ET.

    President Trump on Saturday threatened to wipe Iran off the face of the Earth after US forces launched strikes against the country for its violations of the 60-day memorandum of understanding and ceasefire. “It is very possible that they will never learn!” Trump said, noting that Iranian missile, drone storage locations, and coastal radar sites were hit by US aircraft. “There may come a point when we are no longer able to be reasonable, and will be forced to militarily complete the job that we very successfully started,” he continued. “If that happens, the Islamic Republic of Iran will no...

    The U.S. military said it struck Iran again, hours after a tanker was hit in the Strait of Hormuz, in the worst escalation since the ​two sides signed an interim peace deal two weeks ago. Each of the warring sides has accused the other of violating the agreement reached two weeks ago to end the four-month-old conflict.

    U.S. forces struck Iranian targets again on Sunday local time, U.S. Central Command said. The new strikes follow Bahrain's claim that Iranian drones struck the Gulf state Saturday, which the Iranian Revolutionary Guard Corps claimed targeted a "U.S. terrorist army," after U.S. retaliatory strikes on Iran and an earlier attack on a cargo vessel in the Strait of Hormuz. President Trump on Friday called Iran's attack a "foolish violation" of the ceasefire, as Tehran and Washington appear to remain at odds on even basic points in their memorandum of understanding, including control of the strait and how Iran will spend...

    The U.S. military says it hit Iranian targets on Friday over Iran's drone attack on a commercial vessel in the Strait of Hormuz, marking the first American strikes on Iran since the two countries agreed to extend an already-rickety ceasefire last week. The strikes targeted Iranian missile and drone storage facilities and radar sites, U.S. Central Command said in a statement posted to social media, calling it a "powerful response" to Iran's "dangerous behavior." "The unwarranted aggression against commercial shipping by Iranian forces clearly violated the ceasefire," CENTCOM said.

    The Republican-controlled US Senate passed a legislative measure on Tuesday aimed at stopping American military operations against Iran, Reuters reported. The direct impact on the ground remains uncertain as President Donald Trump's administration actively works to hammer out a peace accord with Tehran. The concurrent resolution cleared the chamber in a tight 50-48 vote, following its approval by the House of Representatives earlier in the month. The final tally fell mostly along party lines, though four Republicans crossed the aisle to vote alongside almost every Democrat. Two Republican senators sat out the vote entirely. The approved text orders the president...

    Iranian officials reportedly abandoned peace talks in the wake of President Donald Trump's threat to 'blow the s*** out of them,' just hours after Vice President JD Vance arrived in Switzerland for negotiations with Tehran. The president threatened Iran to restart his bombing campaigns on the country through profanity filled phone calls and posts on social media while Vance began negotiations. Iranian officials back out of the talks after having filed a formal complaint with Pakistani and Qatari mediators and also refused to pose for photographs, according to the Telegraph. Tehran's Chief negotiator Mohammed Ghalibaf warned that the US should...

    President Donald Trump declared an end to his campaign against Iran’s leaders with an exhortation on Sunday: “Ships of the World, start your engines. Let the oil flow!” With the Iranian regime still in place, he was celebrating a resumption of the way the world was on Feb. 27, the day before the United States and Israel attacked Iran. A return to a version of the status quo was a far cry from the original aims of a war effort that kicked off with a vow to come to the aid of the Iranian protesters who had taken to their...
