Iran has claimed it shot at a US F-35 fighter jet and intercepted an American drone after Donald Trump launched new strikes on Tehran. The Revolutionary Guards said they have the right to retaliate to any aggressive action taken by the US military, amid claims that drones and the aircraft entered Iranian airspace.
US Strikes Target Missile Sites and Boats
The flare-up comes as Iranian negotiators arrive in Doha for the latest round of talks to end the months-long conflict. US forces attacked missile sites and boats trying to lay mines, according to reports. Oil prices fluctuated in the wake of the US strikes, which may threaten any agreement to reopen the Strait of Hormuz.
Diplomatic Efforts Continue
US Secretary of State Marco Rubio said a deal remained within reach despite the attack. Iranian state media has reported several people were killed by airstrikes after boats were targeted near Larak Island. The situation remains tense as both sides weigh their next moves.
