The United States conducted a second round of military strikes against Iranian targets, according to reporting from multiple outlets. The strikes were carried out in response to an alleged Iranian drone attack on a commercial vessel in the Strait of Hormuz on Saturday morning.

President Trump indicated that the possibility of restarting the war remained under consideration. The fresh strikes represent the second wave of U.S. military action against Iran within a 24-hour period.

The attacks followed the alleged Iranian drone strike on the commercial tanker in the Strait of Hormuz, though the sources provided do not specify additional details about the targets struck, casualties, or damage resulting from either the Iranian attack or the subsequent U.S. military response.
