The day before, US forces attacked two Iranian launch sites on Larak Island; local authorities reported two dead and several wounded.

According to a report by the semi-official Tasnim news agency, he said that the continuation of the war was not in the interests of Iran, the region or humanity.<\/p>\n<p>The President of Iran has accused Washington of failing to fulfil its obligations under <a href=\"https:\/\/ukrmedia.news\/en\/world\/tramp-vidklav-udar-po-iranu-zarady-ugody\/\">under previous agreements<\/a>. He added that, in order to prevent the spread of danger and conflict, every opportunity for dialogue and cooperation must be utilised.<\/p>\n<p>Diplomatic talks between the parties have reached an impasse. Meanwhile, the administration <strong>Trump<\/strong> Over recent weeks, it has stepped up economic pressure on Tehran and its business partners, shifting the focus away from military options.<\/p>\n<h2>The US described the strike on Larak as a response to the threat of a landmine attack<\/h2>\n<p>An American official stated that the strike on Larak was carried out after forces of the Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps, according to US observations, were preparing to launch missiles from sea mines in the Strait of Hormuz. The island is situated near the Iranian port of Bandar Abbas.<\/p>\n<p>US Central Command announced \u00ablimited and precise\u00bb actions against IRGC forces, which it assessed as posing an imminent threat in the strait. The island\u2019s governor, quoted by the state news agency IRNA, reported that there were also casualties as a result of the attack.<\/p>\n<p>The Iranian Ministry of Foreign Affairs has stated that <a href=\"https:\/\/ukrmedia.news\/en\/world\/iran-atakuvav-amerikanski-bazy-jordaniya-10-06\/\">bases in Jordan<\/a>, which Tehran used to launch and support the operation in Larak.<\/p>\n<h2>Trump\u2019s statement regarding Hark does not tally with the information on the night-time targets<\/h2>\n<p>Donald Trump posted a video on Truth Social showing dramatic explosions, accompanied by a caption in which he claimed that Hark Island had been \u00abblown to smithereens\u00bb. Reuters, using software to detect image manipulation, determined that the video was most likely computer-generated.<\/p>\n<p>An American official said on Monday that the military had not chosen <a href=\"https:\/\/ukrmedia.news\/en\/world\/iran-zupynyv-eksport-nafty-khark\/\">Hark<\/a> targets during night-time strikes. Hamid Bovard, CEO of the state-owned National Iranian Oil Company, described Trump\u2019s post as \u00abridiculous\u00bb and said that the situation on the island was calm.<\/p>\n<p>According to Boward, oil operations at Khark have not ceased: workers are repairing damage caused earlier and modernising the facilities. Before the war began \u2013 triggered by US and Israeli strikes on 28 February \u2013 90% of Iranian oil exports passed through Khark.<\/p>\n<h2>Reports of mines are increasing the risks to shipping in the strait<\/h2>\n<p>The Strait of Hormuz has effectively been blocked since the start of the war, although under normal circumstances it accounts for around one-fifth of global seaborne crude oil shipments. Against the backdrop of renewed hostilities, oil prices have risen by more than 3.5%.<\/p>\n<p>Iranian state television, citing a statement from the IRGC, reported that the supertanker caught fire and came to a complete halt after being struck by two sea mines in the southern part of the strait. The IRGC claims that the vessel was attempting to pass through the strait illegally.<\/p>\n<p>Last week, Trump stated that all mines in the international waters of the strait had been detonated or removed, and warned that any vessel laying new mines would be destroyed. Iran denied this claim.<\/p>\n<h2>The UAE has denied the claim of an attack, whilst the US is preparing new sanctions<\/h2>\n<p>The Iranian army claimed to have carried out a strike on Al-Minhad Air Base in the United Arab Emirates, but the UAE Ministry of Defence described the report as false. The ministry later reported that the air force had engaged a drone that had arrived from Iran over the country\u2019s territorial waters. The Mehr news agency, citing the Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps (IRGC), also reported that an American drone had been shot down and had crashed into the waters of the Persian Gulf.<\/p>\n<p>US Secretary of the Treasury <strong>Scott Bessent<\/strong> said that new secondary sanctions against Iran could be announced on a weekly basis; these would primarily target banks. The European Union has stated that it will continue to work with the US and other partners to maintain economic pressure on Tehran.<\/p>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The US attributed the strike on Larq to the threat of the Strait of Hormuz being mined, and Iran subsequently declared its readiness for talks.<\/p>","protected":false},"author":207433346,"featured_media":28351,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"rank_math_description":"\u0421\u0428\u0410 \u043f\u043e\u044f\u0441\u043d\u0438\u043b\u0438 \u0443\u0434\u0430\u0440 \u043f\u043e \u041b\u0430\u0440\u0430\u043a\u0443 \u0437\u0430\u0433\u0440\u043e\u0437\u043e\u044e \u043c\u0456\u043d\u0443\u0432\u0430\u043d\u043d\u044f \u041e\u0440\u043c\u0443\u0437\u044c\u043a\u043e\u0457 \u043f\u0440\u043e\u0442\u043e\u043a\u0438, \u0430 \u0406\u0440\u0430\u043d \u043f\u0456\u0441\u043b\u044f \u0446\u044c\u043e\u0433\u043e \u0437\u0430\u044f\u0432\u0438\u0432 \u043f\u0440\u043e \u0433\u043e\u0442\u043e\u0432\u043d\u0456\u0441\u0442\u044c \u0434\u043e \u043f\u0435\u0440\u0435\u0433\u043e\u0432\u043e\u0440\u0456\u0432.","rank_math_title":"\u0406\u0440\u0430\u043d \u0433\u043e\u0442\u043e\u0432\u0438\u0439 \u0437\u0430\u0432\u0435\u0440\u0448\u0438\u0442\u0438 \u0432\u0456\u0439\u043d\u0443 \u0437\u0456 \u0421\u0428\u0410 \u0447\u0435\u0440\u0435\u0437 \u043f\u0435\u0440\u0435\u0433\u043e\u0432\u043e\u0440\u0438","rank_math_focus_keyword":"\u0406\u0440\u0430\u043d","td_subtitle":"","subtitle":"","footnotes":""},"categories":[805619],"tags":[806812],"class_list":["post-28352","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","category-world","tag-blyzkyi-skhid"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/ukrmedia.news\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/28352","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/ukrmedia.news\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/ukrmedia.news\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/ukrmedia.news\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/207433346"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/ukrmedia.news\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=28352"}],"version-history":[{"count":1,"href":"https:\/\/ukrmedia.news\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/28352\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":28353,"href":"https:\/\/ukrmedia.news\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/28352\/revisions\/28353"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/ukrmedia.news\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/28351"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/ukrmedia.news\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=28352"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/ukrmedia.news\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=28352"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/ukrmedia.news\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=28352"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
