The US has launched more strikes on Iran, with local media reporting explosions along the country's south coast. This comes as a US official reportedly warns of wider strikes than those carried out on Tuesday, and President Trump threatens further action, brushing off concerns about oil prices and the potential for a full-scale conflict. Iran, meanwhile, accuses the US of violating a memorandum of understanding and its foreign minister warns of action in response to derogatory language. The situation is a test of a fragile ceasefire, with mediators urging restraint and the UN secretary-general calling for negotiations to resume. The US has also been blamed for attacks on commercial vessels in the Strait of Hormuz, with Iran asserting control over the strait and demanding government-approved routes for ships. The ongoing tensions raise questions about the future of peace talks and the potential for further military action, with Trump's rhetoric and Iran's actions creating a volatile situation in the region.
