US President Donald Trump has not confirmed whether the ceasefire with Iran remains effective, responding cautiously amid rising tensions in the Strait of Hormuz. During media interactions, he stated, “We’ll let you know” when asked about the truce's status. Trump issued a stark warning to Iranian forces, claiming they would be “blown off the face of the Earth” if US ships were targeted, while also suggesting that military conflict with Iran is largely over. This comes as the US military reported engaging Iranian forces and sinking six boats that posed threats to civilian shipping. The situation escalated further when the United Arab Emirates experienced missile and drone attacks, marking the first such incidents since the ceasefire began in early April. Authorities in Fujairah reported a drone strike that ignited a fire at an oil facility, injuring three Indian nationals. Although Iran has not confirmed its involvement, the renewed hostilities risk destabilizing the ceasefire and disrupting global energy supply routes through the strategically vital Strait of Hormuz.
