Two Ships Attacked After Trump Extends Ceasefire

“Two ships came under attack in the Strait of Hormuz as tensions flared in the waterway, after President Trump said the U.S. would extend its ceasefire with Iran and continue its blockade until Tehran presents ‘a unified proposal,’” the Wall Street Journal reports.

“An Iranian gunboat fired on a containership northeast of Oman, before a second vessel reported being fired at off the coast of Iran. The two incidents within hours of each other demonstrate that while the aerial war between the U.S. and Iran is on pause, the fight for control of the strait continues.”
