U.S., Iran Clash as Hormuz Tensions Spike
2 weeks ago
U.S. forces are firing on Iranian boats as they work to reopen the Strait of Hormuz, a critical global shipping route.
The military says six Iranian vessels were sunk during the operation.
The United Arab Emirates, a key U.S. ally, says it was also targeted in a separate attack Monday—the first since a fragile ceasefire took hold in early April.
Officials say two American-flagged ships have now safely transited the strait.
Iran’s foreign minister is warning both the U.S. and the UAE not to be dragged back into a wider conflict.
