## Resource

The fragile ceasefire between the U.S. and Iran seems to be holding despite continued attacks, and Tehran forcing ships to pay a toll to transverse the Strait of Hormuz. President Trump announced a pause in the naval escort operation, 'Project Freedom', to allow negotiations to continue, but warns that failure to reach a deal would result in a significantly escalated bombing campaign. FOX’s John Saucier speaks with Lucas Tomlinson, FOX News Channel (FNC) correspondent reporting from Dubai, United Arab Emirates, who says complete control of the Strait of Hormuz is still up in the air, and later shares with us how the people of the UAE are handling random drone and missile attacks from Iran.
