US strikes Iran again, official says, after Trump denies deal on Strait of Hormuz
- U.S. forces shot down four Iranian attack drones and struck a ground control station near Bandar Abbas, saying the moves were defensive to maintain the ceasefire.
- President Trump dismissed an Iranian report of a deal to reopen the Strait of Hormuz and warned Oman it wouldn’t “control” the waterway, using unusually sharp rhetoric.
- Traffic through the strait remains limited, incidents have rattled markets and pushed oil prices higher — a development that could touch fuel costs and trade.
