The United States military launched targeted airstrikes against Iranian facilities in response to an unprovoked drone attack executed by Tehran against a commercial cargo ship navigating the strategic Strait of Hormuz.
President Donald Trump confirmed that Iranian forces fired four attack drones at commercial vessels, directly breaching a fragile ceasefire agreement established earlier this month between Washington and Tehran.
While American defense systems intercepted three of the incoming drones, a fourth explosive device successfully struck the upper deck of a large cargo-carrying vessel, causing noticeable structural damage.
