The United States and Iran exchanged fresh military strikes on Saturday, with both countries accusing each other of violating their recent ceasefire agreement. The US said it struck 10 Iranian military targets after a drone attack damaged a Panama-flagged oil tanker in the Strait of Hormuz. Iran denied responsibility and retaliated by launching missiles and drones at US-linked military sites in Kuwait and Bahrain. US officials reported no American casualties. The latest escalation has raised fears over security in the Strait of Hormuz, a vital global shipping route, and threatens to derail recent diplomatic efforts. (PC: BBC)
