News detail

President Trump and his senior aides have been considering waging limited strikes in the Strait of Hormuz to prevent Iran from reconstituting its radar and missile capabilities to attack ships, according to three US officials. One incident that raised concern in recent days was the launch of an Iranian anti-aircraft missile toward a US F-35 fighter jet that was providing cover to ships in the strait, a US official said. While the missile didn't come close enough to be a threat, it was a signal that Iran is trying to reconstitute its military capacity. Hegseth supported the plan and sent it to the White House several days ago, US officials said.
