US President Donald Trump on Friday accused Iran of committing a "foolish violation" of the ceasefire agreement by launching drone attacks against vessels in the Strait of Hormuz, claiming American forces intercepted three projectiles but one struck a cargo ship.

US President Donald Trump on Friday labeled recent drone attacks in the Strait of Hormuz a “foolish violation” of the current ceasefire agreement with Iran. Posting on his Truth Social platform, Trump claimed the Islamic Republic had deliberately targeted commercial shipping in a coordinated aerial assault.

“The Islamic Republic of Iran shot at least four one way attack drones at ships,” Trump stated on social media. American forces intercepted three of the unmanned vehicles, he noted, though one struck a cargo ship and damaged its bridge.
