US strikes Iran after Trump says ceasefire was violated US forces struck Iranian missile and drone storage sites and coastal radar positions Friday after Washington accused Tehran of attacking a cargo ship, jolting a fragile ceasefire as diplomats struggled to contain the Middle East war. US Central Command said the strikes were a response to “unwarranted aggression against commercial shipping by Iranian forces” that “clearly violated the ceasefire.” It described the operation as “a powerful response to yesterday’s attack on a commercial ship that was
transiting the Strait of Hormuz.” Iranian state television, citing a reporter in Sirik, said an explosion was heard late Friday at Taherouyeh pier in the southern port city. It quoted an informed military source as saying the blast was caused by a projectile impact in the area.
