The White House says President Donald Trump is weighing new strikes on Iran, while reporting that there have been no US strikes on Iran overnight. Separately, Iran’s paramilitary Revolutionary Guard states it has carried out attacks, saying it struck two additional tankers in the Strait of Hormuz. Other regional reporting points to ongoing security incidents around maritime traffic in the waterway. Kuwait also reports that it intercepts drones, indicating continued air-related activity in the region. Across the accounts, the focus is on a developing situation involving both potential US actions and claims and counterclaims related to attacks and interceptions near the Strait of Hormuz. The reports do not describe the basis or timing of any potential US strikes beyond the White House statement that such options are under consideration. They also do not provide independent verification of the Revolutionary Guard’s claims, though multiple outlets reference the same assertion about the two tankers. The situation remains fluid, with claims of further incidents occurring alongside official US discussions of possible military responses.
