The ministry condemned the airstrikes launched by the U.S. Army on Saturday night, stating they violated international law and the terms of the ceasefire memorandum. These accusations come after a series of U.S. bombings targeting Iranian military sites, which were in response to an alleged drone attack by Iran on an oil tanker in the Strait of Hormuz.

In response, Iran’s Revolutionary Guards launched drones and missiles at targets in Kuwait and Bahrain, vowing to act more forcefully against vessels they deem responsible for violations in the strait.
