US military strikes on Iran ongoing conflict

The United States has conducted multiple waves of military strikes against Iranian military targets, particularly along Iran's southern coast and near the Strait of Hormuz, while reimposing a naval blockade on Iranian ports. Iran has retaliated with strikes on US military facilities in the region and threatened to halt all Middle East energy exports. The conflict has strained a previously signed ceasefire agreement, raising fears of a return to full-scale war.
