Summary
Iran fires strikes at U.S.-linked targets in retaliation for American drone attacks on its coastal facilities, escalating tensions as both sides accuse each other of breaking a fragile truce. Bahrain reports drone strikes on its soil, while an oil tanker in the Strait of Hormuz is hit — a chokepoint for global oil — with all crew safe. The U.S. says its earlier strikes were in response to Iranian drones targeting a cargo ship, despite ongoing de-escalation efforts. Meanwhile, Israel strikes southern Lebanon just days after signing a U.S.-brokered security deal with Lebanon — one Hezbollah refuses to honor — raising alarms over regional stability. The U.S. has not yet confirmed Iran’s claims but remains firm in condemning attacks on commercial shipping and pledging to protect maritime routes.
