US President Donald Trump accused Iran of breaching a ceasefire after a Singapore-flagged cargo ship was struck by a projectile in the Strait of Hormuz on Thursday. Trump stated on Truth Social that Iran fired at least four drones at traversing ships, with one hitting the vessel. No casualties were reported. In response to the attack, the UN's International Maritime Organization paused its planned evacuation of over 11,000 sailors stranded in the shipping lane. The incident occurred after Iran's Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps warned that crossing the strait along a designated route would be "unacceptable and completely dangerous" and that vessels should coordinate with Iran. Iranian state media reported Trump's remarks and also conveyed the IRGC's assertions that the strait is Iranian territory.
