The U.S. military conducted strikes on Iran after President Trump accused Tehran of downing an Army helicopter near the Strait of Hormuz. The U.S. Central Command described the attacks as a proportional response to Iranian aggression. Iran's Foreign Minister warned that foreign military forces near their territory are at constant risk and promised retaliation. The incident escalated tensions following a two-month ceasefire, with recent exchanges of fire between Iran and Israel. Meanwhile, Trump expressed optimism about a potential deal with Iran, despite ongoing hardline positions from both sides regarding nuclear negotiations and sanctions relief.
