U.S. and Iran Resume Military Operations After MOU Collapse
Conflict threatens global energy security and regional stability.
Event Overview
A memorandum of understanding between the U.S. and Iran to halt military operations and reopen the Strait of Hormuz collapsed less than a month after signing. The U.S. has conducted airstrikes on Iranian infrastructure, including bridges, ports, and the islands of Abu Musa and Greater Tunb, while reimposing a naval blockade. Iran has retaliated with missile attacks targeting U.S.-hosted bases and infrastructure in Jordan, Bahrain, Qatar, and Kuwait.
