ELI10:
The fragile ceasefire between the US and Iran is severely tested after a cargo ship was attacked by a drone in the Strait of Hormuz. The US retaliated with strikes on Iran, whose officials claimed their actions were 'ceasefire management' and then retaliated against US targets. This back-and-forth threatens global oil shipments and peace talks. Separately, Israel and Lebanon announced a peace agreement, but it faces strong rejection from Hezbollah and remains fragile. The Strait of Hormuz is a key flashpoint, with concerns about ship safety and Iran's demands for control.
