President Donald Trump said the interim ceasefire agreement with Iran is effectively over, accusing Tehran of negotiating in bad faith and describing further talks as a waste of time.
His remarks followed renewed attacks on commercial vessels near the Strait of Hormuz, U.S. strikes on Iranian targets, and a decision by Washington to revoke a license that had permitted limited Iranian oil sales.
Iran said it targeted U.S. military installations in Bahrain and Kuwait in response, according to the source material.
Renewed strikes
The United States struck more than 80 Iranian targets, the source material stated. The action came after attacks on commercial shipping in the Strait of Hormuz, a waterway through which a large share of global seaborne oil passes.
Washington also revoked a license that had allowed limited Iranian oil sales.
Trump accused Tehran of bad-faith negotiations and said the ceasefire was effectively over.
Iranian response
Iran said it targeted U.S. military sites in Bahrain and Kuwait, the source material reported. Both countries host American forces.
The reported exchanges raised concern about a wider regional conflict.
Market impact
Oil prices climbed following the developments, according to the source material. The Strait of Hormuz is a critical chokepoint for global energy supplies, and disruptions there typically affect prices.
The source material did not provide figures for casualties, the scale of damage, or the specific timing of the strikes.
