Iran accuses US of attacking commercial ships

Iran accused the United States on Tuesday (26) of repeatedly violating the ceasefire and carrying out attacks on Iranian merchant ships, according to a statement from the Ministry of Foreign Affairs.

The ministry said the US had continued what it called "illegal and unjust actions" since announcing the ceasefire and committed "numerous maritime robberies" against Iranian merchant ships.

Tehran also accused Washington of flagrantly violating the ceasefire in Iran's Hormozgan region over the past 28 hours. The Strait of Hormuz is located along the southern coast of the Hormozgan region of Iran.
