US aircraft struck four Iranian targets on Friday night, including missile and drone storage sites along the southern coast and on Qeshm Island, after a Singapore-flagged cargo vessel was damaged by an Iranian drone in the Strait of Hormuz on Thursday, CENTCOM confirmed. President Donald Trump called the attack on the M/V Ever Lovely a “foolish violation” of the week-old ceasefire and warned Tehran against further provocations .

The strikes marked the most serious breach of the interim peace accord since it was signed in Islamabad on 17 June. Iran’s Revolutionary Guards immediately retaliated by attacking US-linked military sites in the Gulf, including a telecommunications mast in Sirik and positions in Bahrain, according to state media and Bahrain’s foreign ministry . A second projectile struck an oil tanker in Hormuz on Saturday morning, raising the threat level set by the UK’s maritime security agency.

Washington and Tehran each accused the other of violating the memorandum of understanding that ended four months of open warfare. The US said Iran’s drone strike on the M/V Ever Lovely endangered freedom of navigation through the world’s most critical chokepoint. Iran’s foreign ministry branded the American raids a “flagrant violation” of the UN Charter and the 17 June accord, vowing to defend its sovereignty and urging the UN Security Council to intervene .

Analysts warned the fragile truce is now at risk of collapse. “The protocol is showing fragility,” said Josef Kraus, a security analyst at Masaryk University. “Both sides are prepared to use force, and the tit-for-tat strikes risk unravelling the entire agreement.” Negotiations on a permanent peace deal, including Iran’s nuclear programme, were already under strain before the latest escalation .

US Vice-President JD Vance reiterated that Washington would respond to violence with force, while Iran’s Guards vowed their retaliation would be “rapid and decisive.” The exchange leaves the Strait of Hormuz—through which a fifth of the world’s seaborne oil passes—more volatile than at any point since the ceasefire was signed.
