Iran's Revolutionary Guard said it targeted a U.S. airbase after the U.S. military struck an Iranian drone operation near the Strait of Hormuz. The escalation threatens the fragile ceasefire.

A U.S. official said four Iranian drones were shot down and a ground control station in Bandar Abbas was destroyed. Iran responded by attacking the U.S. base.

Kuwait reported responding to missile and drone attacks. Israel sounded sirens over hostile aircraft activity in the north.

Oil prices rose over 3%. President Trump said no country will control the strait and dismissed reports of a deal with Iran.
