US Fires on Iranian Targets as Trump Demands Deal From Tehran

The US struck military targets in Iran after the country fired on three Navy destroyers sailing in the Strait of Hormuz, an escalation that threatened to fracture a fragile ceasefire and reignite hostilities even as the two sides say they’re discussing an end to the war.

Iran’s assault on three US warships involved “multiple missiles, drones and small boats,” according to a US Central Command statement on Thursday, which added that “no US assets were struck.”
