US strikes Iran for 10th consecutive night as Tehran strikes tanker in the Strait of Hormuz

The US conducted its 10th consecutive night of airstrikes against Iran, which responded by attacking a tanker in the Strait of Hormuz, forcing its crew to abandon the ship. The conflict, over control of the strategic waterway, has stalled shipping and led to the collapse of an interim peace deal. Both sides have targeted civilian infrastructure, with the US warning of potential global attacks and Iran sending its interior minister to Pakistan for mediation talks.
