US strikes Iranian targets as Trump warns against retaliation

The United States has launched military strikes against Iranian targets, with explosions reported in Bandar Abbas and Sirik in the first direct exchange of fire between the two countries in a month.

U.S. President Donald Trump threatened additional strikes if Tehran retaliates, claiming Iranian leadership is seeking a diplomatic agreement with Washington. Meanwhile, Iranian President Masoud Pezeshkian declared that while his country does not seek wider conflict, it will "decisively respond to aggressors." The military action marks a sharp escalation in regional hostility following weeks of heightened friction in strategic waterways.
