9. Iran says US violated peace deal as both sides trade fire

Iran accused the United States on Saturday of violating their deal to end the Middle East war, after Washington launched strikes on Iranian territory and Tehran responded with attacks on US targets in the Gulf.

The exchange of fire, which came after Washington accused Tehran of attacking a cargo ship in the Strait of Hormuz, raised doubts about efforts to keep the crucial waterway open while both sides negotiate a final deal.

Israel, meanwhile, launched strikes in Lebanon and Hezbollah's leader Naim Qassem rejected a deal to end the conflict that has threatened to derail the wider US-Iran peace effort.

US Central Command (CENTCOM) said the latest American strikes, which targeted Iranian missile and drone storage sites and coastal radar positions, were a response to "unwarranted aggression against commercial shipping by Iranian forces" that "clearly violated the ceasefire".
