What happened

U.S. Central Command said it began additional strikes on Iran on Wednesday at Trump’s direction, targeting capabilities it said threatened freedom of navigation in the Strait of Hormuz. The strikes followed U.S. attacks on more than 80 Iranian targets on Tuesday and Iranian attacks on commercial shipping and U.S. military sites in the Gulf. Trump said the interim memorandum of understanding reached last month was “over” and that he was not sure he wanted a deal with Tehran. Oil prices rose and stocks fell amid concerns about Strait traffic.
