Iran Fires Missiles at Strait of Hormuz Ships 11 Days After U.S. Ceasefire Deal

Iran's Revolutionary Guards fired at least two missiles at commercial vessels transiting the Strait of Hormuz on July 6, undercutting a June 27 agreement between Washington and Tehran to halt hostilities and resume negotiations over passage rights. Neither government has formally characterized the strike as a breach. The corridor handles roughly one-fifth of global oil flows, and this year's pattern of attacks—from March through July—suggests an unresolved dispute over control rather than isolated incidents.
