The United States carried out fresh strikes on Iran for the second time in three days, targeting a military site in Bandar Abbas near the Strait of Hormuz. US Central Command said the site was preparing to launch attack drones and claimed four Iranian drones threatening the shipping route were shot down. Iran condemned the action as a violation of the ceasefire and warned it would respond to any hostility. The renewed tensions come amid ongoing negotiations to end the three-month conflict that has disrupted global oil shipments and pushed up energy prices worldwide. (PC: BBC)
