The US says it targeted Iranian missile and drone storage locations while the IRGC said it hit US military sites in the region. The United States and Iran have traded strikes for the first time since signing a memorandum of understanding (MoU) last week, raising tensions days before the two sides are set to meet for the next round of talks. The US military said it carried out the strikes in retaliation for a drone attack on a cargo ship a day earlier in the Strait of Hormuz. This came after US President Donald Trump accused Iran of carrying out that attack. Iranian state media reported that a projectile struck near a pier in the city of Sirik near the Strait of Hormuz. Iran said Qeshm island has also been hit. Iran’s Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps (IRGC) said it targeted locations in the region where US forces are deployed in retaliation for the Trump administration’s latest attack. Here’s what we know as the conflict enters day 120. In Iran Iran’s Foreign Ministry has condemned the US strikes. “The US attacks targeting coastal surveillance facilities violate Article 1 of the Memorandum of Understanding.” Iran’s IRGC Navy, in a statement, said it responded to the US strikes on Friday by targeting US military sites in the region. “In response to this act of aggression, the Navy of the Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps targeted the deployment sites of the US military in the region,” the statement said.

There were no reports of US targets being attacked by the time of publication. Iran’s IRGC accuses the US of violating commitments under the MoU in its latest attacks, adding that the deal gives Tehran control over ships transiting the Strait of Hormuz – a global energy chokepoint. An Iranian MP says US strikes on Iran during the talks exposed Washington’s lack of commitment to diplomacy and ceasefire understandings. Ebrahim Azizi, the head of parliament’s Security and Foreign Policy Commission, said on X that the US “once again attacked Iran in the middle of negotiations”. Iran’s Mehr news agency quoted the head of ports at eastern Hormozgan as saying that no damage has been caused to the port of Sirik in Hormozgan province following the US attacks. In the US US Central Command (CENTCOM) said it targeted Iranian missile and drone storage locations, as well as coastal radar sites. The US military posted a video of its apparent strikes on Iran, a few hours after CENTCOM said it carried out attacks. US Vice President JD Vance has warned that “violence will be met with violence” after Washington conducted strikes on Iran. The US State Department has released the text of a framework deal reached between Lebanon and Israel in Washington, DC. The framework states that Israel’s military will “progressively redeploy out of the Lebanese territory” once non-state actors, such as Hezbollah, are disarmed.
