The U.S. struck Iran on Friday in response to a drone attack a day earlier on a cargo ship in the Strait of Hormuz. It\u2019s the most significant test yet to an interim understanding reached a week ago by the two countries to begin working to end their months-long war and reopen the pivotal waterway.<\/p>\n

\n

U.S. President Donald Trump said the drone attack violated the ceasefire. The strikes came shortly after Trump told reporters, \u201cYou\u2019ll find out,\u201d whether the U.S. would respond.<\/p>\n

U.S. Central Command said the military struck missile and drone locations and coastal radar sites in Iran.<\/p>\n

\u201cI don\u2019t like the fact that they took a shot yesterday, actually four of them,\u201d Trump said at the White House shortly before the U.S. struck back. When asked why there would be strikes when Trump has insisted talks with Tehran are going well, Trump said of Iran: \u201cThey\u2019re a little bit different.\u201d<\/p>\n

He then abruptly cut off questions and reporters were ushered out of his office.<\/p>\n

Ebrahim Azizi, who heads the Iranian parliament\u2019s national security commission, responded to Trump on social media earlier Friday, saying, \u201cthe Strait of Hormuz is governed by Iran, so: Respect the rules\u201d and to \u201cnot mistake control for escalation.\u201d<\/p>\n

\u201cThis is not a violation of the ceasefire; it is ceasefire management,\u201d Azizi wrote.<\/p>\n

Strikes conclude an hour later<\/h4>\n

The U.S. strikes on Iran concluded about an hour after U.S. Central Command announced the military action on social media, a U.S. official with knowledge of the situation told The Associated Press. The official spoke on condition of anonymity to discuss an ongoing military operation.<\/p>\n

The British military said on Thursday that a container ship was hit by a projectile off the coast of Oman, coming hours after\u00a0Iran threatened<\/a> vessels to stop using the route. The United Kingdom Maritime Trade Operations center said no injuries were reported.<\/p>\n

The development came during a fragile time for the U.S. and Iran as they work to negotiate a permanent end to the war. Iran has increasingly challenged the region and the U.S. over its control of the Strait of Hormuz, even with the current interim deal it reached with the U.S. last week.<\/p>\n

The attack on the cargo ship happened while a United Nations maritime agency was beginning an operation to move stranded ships out of the strait this week, using an alternative route, hugging the shores of Oman rather than sailing through the central part of the strait.<\/p>\n

The International Maritime Organization\u00a0halted the evacuations<\/a>\u00a0after the attack and said on Friday they won\u2019t resume until there are guarantees that the other ships won\u2019t be attacked.<\/p>\n

About 115 ships were able to move out of the strait in recent days, leaving about 500 still in the area, said Arsenio Dominguez, the agency\u2019s secretary-general.<\/p>\n

The opening of the alternative passage through the strait was expected to\u00a0relieve pressure on the world economy<\/a>\u00a0and remove Iran\u2019s main source of leverage in\u00a0ongoing peace talks<\/a>\u00a0with the U.S.<\/p>\n

The U.S. and Iran are still negotiating terms of the deal, including issues such as getting ships through the key strait and addressing the future of\u00a0Iran\u2019s stockpile of highly enriched uranium<\/a>. Under the interim deal, the two sides have 60 days to work out the details.<\/p>\n

Cargo ship attack poses a test for shipping<\/h4>\n

Shipping analysts said the drone strike cast a shadow over what had been a growing stream of trapped vessels finally leaving the Gulf and an increasing flow of tankers carrying crude oil.<\/p>\n

\u201cA week of widening commercial confidence in the Strait of Hormuz has hit its first significant test,\u201d said marine data company Windward on X. It said that while the strait remains operationally open with 43 transits recorded after the incident, \u201cthe pace of normalization has slowed.\u201d<\/p>\n

On Wednesday before Thursday\u2019s drone strike, 78 vessels transited the strait, the highest since the war began, although below the prewar averages of 130 or more per day.<\/p>\n

At least two tankers reversed course while attempting to transit the strait on the U.N.-backed route near Oman after Iran insisted vessels use only the Teheran-approved routes, according to marine data and analytic firm Lloyd\u2019s List Intelligence.<\/p>\n

More than two dozen ships were still transiting the strait\u2019s southern route after the attack, Lloyd\u2019s said Friday.<\/p>\n

Lebanon and Israel make a step toward peace<\/h4>\n

Ambassadors from Israel and Lebanon\u00a0announced an agreement<\/a>\u00a0Friday described as a step toward peace following months of conflict between Israeli troops and the Lebanese militant group Hezbollah.<\/p>\n

Nada Hamadeh, Lebanon\u2019s ambassador to the U.S., called the framework a move toward \u201cenabling our people to go back to their land and allowing all Lebanese to live in peace, security, and prosperity.\u201d<\/p>\n

Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu said the plan was a \u201cgreat achievement\u201d for Israel.<\/p>\n

\u201cThe most important thing, first and foremost, is that Israel will remain in the security zone in southern Lebanon,\u201d he said, adding that they will stay until Hezbollah is disarmed and no longer poses a threat to Israel.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
