Qeshm Tensions Amid Talks
The United States carried out limited strikes on Iran’s Qeshm Island in the Strait of Hormuz. President Donald Trump said they targeted an air-defense facility, while Iranian media reported hearing five explosions and seeing two aircraft flying over the island. The Israeli military denied involvement. Tehran asserted its right to respond, while Iranian officials said major disagreements with Washington remained and tied the reopening of the Strait of Hormuz to their demands being met. Qatar is continuing its mediation and the exchange of proposals in an effort to reach an interim agreement, warning that escalation could complicate the talks. Iranian media also quoted the Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps as saying that three oil tankers caught fire after striking mines in the strait.
