Iran Seizes 3 Ships In Strait Of Hormuz
1 week ago
Israel and Lebanon are meeting in Washington today in an effort to extend a fragile 10-day ceasefire that began last week.
However, broader efforts to end the conflict in the Middle East remain uncertain.
Planned talks between the United States and Iran have stalled, with the White House suspending Vice President J.D. Vance’s planned trip to Pakistan. Iran has accused the U.S. of failing to negotiate in good faith.
Tensions escalated further after Iran fired on three ships in the Strait of Hormuz and seized two of them — a key global shipping route.
The incident comes just a day after President Donald Trump extended the ceasefire while maintaining a blockade on Iranian ports.
