CEASEFIRE OVER?- U.S. attacks Iran, IRGC's FINAL WARNING to Israel
U.S. STRIKES ON IRAN
It has been reported that the U.S. military had conducted strikes in the Strait of Hormuz.
The U.S. Central Command reported that the U.S. aircraft struck on Iranian missile and drone storage locations, in Sharik Island.
The American Central Command stated that "CENTCOM attacked several Iranian targets on June 26. The action was taken in response to an attack on a commercial ship passing through the Strait of Hormuz a day earlier."
Adding that "U.S. aircraft targeted Iranian missile and drone storage sites and coastal radar installations. This action was taken because Iran had carried out a one-way attack on the Singapore-flagged cargo ship on June 25. According to CENTCOM, Iran's action against commercial vessels were an unprovoked act out of aggression and a clear violation of the ceasefire."
"Iran's behavior is weakening the freedom of navigation, when large parts of international trade transit through this important sea route. "
The tensions have again reignited in the Hormuz, whereas many are condemning the CENTCOM for dismissing Israel's violation.
IRAN TIGHTENTS CONTROL ON HORMUZ
Yesterday, Iran had issued warning that any ship crossing Hormuz shall take permission from Iran. Despite the fact, a singapore flagged ship cross the Hormuz without Iran's permit. Consequently, Iran had to fire missiles and drones at the ship.
The U.S. President, Donald Trump, affirmed the act as Iran's violation of ceasefire. He wrote a post on X that- "The Islamic Republic of Iran shot at least four One-Way Attack Drones at ships transversing the Strait of Hormuz. One of the drones solidly hit the upper deck of a large and very expensive Cargo ship carrying ship. Damage was drone, but the ship was able to proceed on its way. We knocked down three other drones. Obviously, this is a foolish violation of our Ceasefire Agreement".
It is being questioned that if Donald Trump is claiming this a violation of ceasefire, then what should Israel's attack on Lebanon be termed, as Israel continues to demolish and set fires to home in Southern Lebanon all day and night. The death toll from Israeli strikes has risen to over 4,200
In fact, Oman told the European allies that ships trasiting th Strait of Hormuz may have to pay fees and it will never return to pre-war status.
Terms are explicit that Iran would never give up the control from Hormuz.
IRGC WARNS ISRAEL
The IRGC has warned and threatened Israel. According to them:-
- The presence of Israeli military aircraft in the airspace of some neighboring countries en route to Iran is a dangerous act and a direct threat to the Islamic Republic of Iran.
- If the U.S. fails to restrain Israel, Iran will not tolerate any threat against it and reserves the right to respond.
COMMUNICATION LINES
It has also been reported recently that direct communication lines have developed between America and IRGC to prevent incidents in the Hormuz.
Later, the IRGC strongly denied, calling it "a complete lie that has not happened and will not happen" asserting that the Strait of Hormuz is Iranian territory and has no connections with the United States.
Iran also declared there is absolutely no way to return the Strait of Hormuz to its pre-war status.
SATELLITE SHOWS DAMAGE TO U.S. BASES
The, Western Press, has released some satellite pictures, showcasing the damage caused by Iranian attacks over the past three months on U.S. bases in Kuwait, Bahrain and U.A.E.
The U.S. Navy fifth fleet base suffered severe damage to the command building, 12 other buildings, and two satellite communiation terminals and damage to the base in Bahrain alone is estimated at $400 million.
The damages reveals Iran's military power, and how any unlawful act with Iran can backfire.
THE EFFECTS
- Crude oil price has reached $70 per barrel in the international market
- As Hormuz narrows, trade may be at risk
WHAT IT MEANS?
JOINT HORMUZ CONTROL: It is direct that Iran and Oman will jointly control the Strait of Hormuz.
REVOKED CEASEFIRE: With America's increased military action on Hormuz, and U.S. negligence on Israel's violation, it could possibly lead to a revoked ceasefire.
TRIGGERED WAR: As Iran accuses Israel for using neighboring airspace for military escalation, it could trigger a war if U.S. fails to restrain Israel.
FINAL VERDICT
The ceasefire is at its edge and has provoked direct military action.
Donald Trump is being questioned for claiming Iran's retaliation as a violation of ceasefire, as reality shows a different story. He is now being condemned for not recognizing Israel's continuous attack on Lebanon as a violation.
The two main important points in the peace agreement were that the attack on Lebanon would stop and Iran would open the Strait of Hormuz. Iran is coherent about halting the Strait of Hormuz according to their will, if Israel does not withdraws from Lebanon.
The IRGC has also mentioned that ff the U.S. fails to restrain Israel, Iran will not tolerate any threat against it and reserves the right to respond.
Their idea is direct- Israel should fulfill their commitment as per the agreement to implement the ceasefire, it is not solely about Iran. Any violation from Israel means the ceasefire shall be revoked, allowing Iran to rule over Hormuz on their terms rather than keeping it open for all.
Iran is adamant about not stepping back, it is a do or die case for them. Iran will consider the ceasefire only if Lebanon is included in it, and for now anyone passing through Hormuz will have to take permit from Iran.
The IRGC is carrying out attacks in a deliberated and planned manner, indicating the situation is entirely under their control. Therefore when Iran attacked the Singapore ship, it deliberately did not hit the engine or targets intending to sink the ship. They have set a warning for all.
As military tensions rise, concerns are growing globally.
