The US military carried out a third consecutive night of strikes against Iran on Monday (all times local) as President Donald Trump reinstated a blockade of Iranian shipping and proposed charging a 20 percent fee to guard the Strait of Hormuz.

US attacks come after Iran said it fired warning shot that struck a vessel travelling on an unapproved route through Hormuz.

US Central Command announced on Sunday that at 5pm EDT, forces began launching additional strikes on the country in an effort to secure the vital Strait of Hormuz waterway.
