The United States launched air strikes on Iranian missile and drone storage sites near Sirik in retaliation for a drone attack on the cargo ship "Ever Lovely" in the Strait of Hormuz, a move the U.S. described as a "foolish violation" of a ceasefire. Iran’s Revolutionary Guards vowed swift retaliation.

1. Damage was done, but the Ship was able to proceed on its way. We knocked down three other Drones. Obviously, this is a foolish violation of our Ceasefire Agreement.
2. It took a little beating. They shouldn't be doing that. So you'll find out.
3. The Islamic Republic of Iran shot at least four One Way Attack Drones at Ships transversing the Strait of Hormuz. One of the Drones solidly hit the upper deck of a large and very expensive Cargo Carrying Ship.
Iranian Revolutionary Guards
1. We emphasise that this aggression will not go unanswered, and our response will be swift and decisive at a time and place of our choosing.

1. The only law that governs this region is still the law of the Islamic Republic of Iran and the Revolutionary Guards Navy.
US Central Command
1. U.S. Central Command (CENTCOM) forces conducted strikes against Iran, June 26, as a powerful response to yesterday's attack on a commercial ship that was transiting the Strait of Hormuz.
2. The unwarranted aggression against commercial shipping by Iranian forces clearly violated the ceasefire.
3. Furthermore, Iran's dangerous behavior undermined freedom of navigation as commerce increasingly flows through the vital international trade corridor.
4. U.S. aircraft struck Iranian missile and drone storage locations and coastal radar sites.

1. The Strait of Hormuz is Iranian territory and has no connection to the United States.
