After months of escalating conflict between the United States and Iran, a temporary cease-fire was agreed upon in April, reducing hostilities temporarily and allowing negotiations to take place. Despite the truce, clashes resumed over control of the Strait of Hormuz, including attacks on ships and military responses, leading to fluctuating periods of calm and renewed fighting.
