US carries out new strikes in Iran against military site, official says
U.S. forces shot down four Iranian drones and struck a ground control station after officials said the site threatened commercial shipping and U.S. troops.
- U.S. forces conducted fresh strikes on an Iranian military site Wednesday, intercepting and shooting down multiple Iranian drones; officials cited threats to American forces and commercial shipping in the Strait of Hormuz.
- Tensions escalated after President Donald Trump rejected an Iranian media report of a draft peace framework proposing Iran and Oman jointly manage Strait shipping, straining a ceasefire in place nearly seven weeks.
- The White House called the reported draft deal 'a complete fabrication,' while Trump declared, 'Nobody's going to control the strait'; Iran's parliamentary security chief Ebrahim Azizi countered that Tehran would not abandon uranium enrichment or Strait authority demands.
- Despite Secretary of State Marco Rubio claiming 'some progress' toward a deal, the nations remain far apart on uranium enrichment and Strait authority, with the European Central Bank warning the conflict could trigger global financial meltdown.
