US Launch New Strikes Against Iran

Donald Trump says his forces hit back strongly after an American helicopter was shot down over the Strait of Hormuz.

Donald Trump says his forces hit back strongly after an American helicopter was shot down over the Strait of Hormuz.

The two pilots are safe and uninjured.

The US military says the action is now complete, while Iran says America has opted to test the country's 'determination'.

Iran's foreign minister said he had warned foreign forces to stay clear of Iranian territory and waters.

In a post on X, Iran's chief negotiator Mohammad Bagher Ghalibaf said 'You ride the horse you saddled'.
