USA attack Iran after drone strike

27. June 2026, 00:45

The US military attacks targets in Iran. Planes hit spots for rockets and drones. They also hit radar stations on the coast. This is a reaction to an attack on Thursday. A cargo ship was hit in the Strait of Hormuz.

President Donald Trump is very angry. He says: Iran breaks our peace deal. A peace deal is an agreement to stop fighting. Trump calls the attack on the ship stupid. The US military shoots down 3 other drones.

The hit ship has the name Ever Lovely. It sails with the flag of Singapore. Nobody is hurt in the attack. The ship continues its trip. The event happens near the coast of Oman. The situation in the region is now very dangerous.

Iran says: Ships must ask us first. Only then the trip is safe. Iran wants to control the water road. But the USA wants free travel for all ships. The rescue of sailors stops now.
