UAE says 15 missiles, 4 drones fired, sparking fire at oil facility in first major attack since ceasefire; US says it sunk 6 small Iranian boats as ships come under missile fire

The ceasefire in the Iran war abruptly faced its most perilous moment Monday after the United States began trying to open the Strait of Hormuz to allow hundreds of stranded commercial ships sail out.

The attacks appeared to be in response to U.S. President Donald Trump’s latest efforts to reopen the strait, a critical waterway for global energy.
