Trump confirms US Iran fire exchange in Strait of Hormuz despite ceasefire vow

Ceasefire checked in the most dangerous way possible

The US and Iran exchanged fire in the Strait of Hormuz, marking the most serious test of their month-long ceasefire. Iran said conditions returned to normal, while Washington said it wanted to avoid escalation. The confrontation reportedly unfolded as the US waited for Iran’s response to a proposal to halt fighting without addressing Iran’s nuclear program.
