The United States and Iran had agreed to an interim ceasefire to end nearly four months of hostilities.
Barely a week after the United States and Iran agreed to an interim ceasefire intended to end nearly four months of hostilities, the fragile truce came under strain on Friday (local time), with both sides accusing each other of violating its terms.
The latest flare-up followed an Iranian drone strike on a cargo ship transiting the Strait of Hormuz on Thursday. The United States blamed Tehran for the attack, describing it as a breach of the ceasefire, and responded by carrying out airstrikes on Iranian military targets.
The US Central Command (CENTCOM) said American aircraft targeted missile and drone storage facilities as well as coastal radar sites. It later released footage of one of the strikes and said the military operation had concluded.
