The United States has launched a third round of overnight airstrikes on Iran following an attack by Iran’s Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps (IRGC) on a container ship in the Strait of Hormuz. According to Al Jazeera, the operation began at 7:15 p.m. local time on Saturday under the directive of President Donald Trump. The U.S. Central Command confirmed that the targeted vessel, the Cyprus-flagged M/V GFS Galaxy, suffered severe engine damage and one civilian sailor remains missing.
The escalation follows days of retaliatory attacks between the two countries, prompting President Trump to cancel a ceasefire while maintaining that diplomatic channels remain open. Iran responded by closing the Strait of Hormuz, claiming the ship had been traveling through an unauthorized route, and warned of a strong response to any U.S. action. Iranian state media reported multiple explosions across southern provinces including Bushehr, Hormozgan, and Khuzestan.
The conflict has destabilized the Gulf region and driven global fuel prices sharply higher, intensifying inflationary pressures worldwide. The situation has also become politically sensitive for President Trump ahead of the upcoming November election.
