The United States bombed Iran after the attack on a ship in the Strait of Hormuz, while a tripartite agreement is signed in Washington

The attack was confirmed by the United States Central Command (Centcom) which noted that it was carried out by planes that attacked Iranian drone and missile warehouses, as well as coastal radar bases.

El Centcom accused Iran of “violating the ceasefire” and said its action was “a forceful response” to Iran’s attack Thursday on the Singapore-flagged ship M/V Ever Lovely as it was leaving the Strait of Hormuz along the coast of Oman.

“Unjustified aggression against commercial maritime transport by Iranian forces clearly violated the ceasefire,” Centcom added in its statement, warning that “Iran’s dangerous behavior undermined freedom of navigation at a time when trade increasingly flows through this vitally important international trade corridor.”

The president of the United States, Donald Trump, had this morning accused Iran of a “wanton” violation of the ceasefire for launching “at least four one-way attack drones against ships transiting the Strait of Hormuz.”

The incident occurred 7.5 nautical miles southeast of Dahit, in Oman, according to the British Maritime Trade Operations Agency (UKMTO), which recommended caution to ships in the waterway, through which 20% of global crude oil passes.

This would be the first attack recorded in the area since the United States and Iran signed a memorandum of understanding last week to end hostilities and reopen traffic in Hormuz, as they negotiate a final agreement that addresses the Iranian nuclear program.

Centcom assured that US forces “continue to provide coordination and support to the safe passage of commercial vessels that transit through the strait”.

The vice president JD Vance He warned that the United States will respond to any attack by Iran with “violence” and recalled that “Iran signed a ceasefire agreement. We have respected it. If they have disagreements about how the memorandum of understanding is being applied, they can pick up the phone. But violence will be responded to with violence.”

In the midst of the complex network of historical conflicts that has been going on for decades in the Middle East, authorities of Israel and Lebanon signed an agreement this Friday under the auspices of the United States in search of peace that is complicated by the presence of the terrorist group Hezbollah in southern Lebanon.

The Secretary of State, Marco Rubio, He stressed that this agreement provided “a framework for lasting peace and security”, although he admitted that “it is the beginning of the beginning. There is much work ahead.”

The Israeli Prime Minister, Benjamin Netanyahu, hailed the document as a victory against Iran, while Tehran maintains that Israel’s conflict in Lebanon against its ally Hezbollah is inseparable from the broader war, and must be part of the final agreement that Washington and Tehran are negotiating.

Netanyahu stated that under the agreement, the Lebanese army would be allowed to take control of “two pilot areas” to begin taking control of parts of southern Lebanon, near the Litani River, about thirty kilometers from the border with Israel.

The Lebanese president, Joseph Aoun, celebrated the agreement as “a first step” towards the restoration of Lebanon’s sovereignty, without “occupation”, “subordination” or “guardianship”.

From southern Lebanon, Hezbollah deputy Hassan Fadlallah raised objections and estimated that implementing the deal would entail a risk of “civil war.”

The “Lebanese authorities will not be able to impose the application of the agreement signed in Washington unless they move, with American support, towards a civil war,” he stated.
