US, Iran Trade Fire in Hormuz as Trump Insists Ceasefire Holds (May 8, 1445 UTC, 1745 Israel) (Evening Edition)
US and Iranian forces exchanged fire in the Strait of Hormuz late Thursday, with the US striking Qeshm port and Bandar Abbas after Iran attacked US Navy destroyers. President Trump called the US strikes a 'love tap' and insisted the ceasefire remains in effect, while Iran accused the US of violating the truce. Hezbollah launched rockets and explosive drones at northern Israel, wounding three soldiers, and the IDF struck a Hezbollah rocket launcher in southern Lebanon.
