US accuses Iran of ‘egregious ceasefire violation’ following strikes in Kuwait

# The US Central Command says Iran’s attack on Kuwait yesterday was an egregious ceasefire violation. Iran’s Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps confirmed that it targeted an American air base in the region. This is after the US shot down Iranian drones over the Strait of Hormuz and struck a military site in Bandar Abbas. The Iranian Foreign Ministry has condemned the US strikes, saying they constituted a violation of the ceasefire. CENTCOM says its actions against Tehran are measured, purely defensive, and intended to maintain the ceasefire.
