US and Iran exchange warnings following strikes near Bandar Abbas

Tensions between Washington and Tehran have escalated following a fresh exchange of military strikes targeting Iranian coastal regions near Bandar Abbas and Sirik. United States President Donald Trump warned of additional military action should Iran choose to retaliate, claiming that Iranian leadership is eager for negotiations with Washington.

Iranian President Masoud Pezeshkian stated that while Tehran does not seek an expanded war, any violation of Iranian territory will trigger a "decisive response." Meanwhile, Iranian military officials dismissed assertions regarding damage to their naval capabilities, maintaining that their fleet remains operational despite the American strikes. The exchange marks the first direct military clash between the two nations in a month.
