Multiple explosions were reported across parts of Iran as the United States launched a fresh wave of military strikes following the loss of a U.S. Apache helicopter near the Strait of Hormuz. U.S. Central Command (CENTCOM) said the attacks targeted Iranian military infrastructure in response to what Washington called "unjustified aggression." Iran, meanwhile, has vowed retaliation and claimed responsibility for attacks on U.S. military assets across the region. With missile exchanges intensifying and ceasefire efforts under strain, fears are growing that the U.S.-Iran conflict could enter a far more dangerous phase.

In a statement posted to social media, U.S. Central Command said the strikes would be “a proportional response to unjustified Iranian aggression.”

Two US crew members were rescued near Oman, but Trump’s decision to retaliate adds new strain to already fragile peace efforts.

A military response from the US could threaten the ceasefire that has been in place since 8 April, as Tehran warned "foreign forces" to leave the Strait of Hormuz.

Trump has repeatedly said Iran wants to make a deal with him to end the war and that they have agreed to concessions.
