The US military has attacked Iran again. Iran has accused the US of carrying out military operations during the ceasefire. 

The US military has targeted Iranian oil tankers in the Gulf of Oman. Iran has now threatened to respond directly after this attack. 

According to Iran's state media Press TV, a spokesman for the Khatam al-Anbia Central Headquarters said that the US military targeted an oil tanker heading towards the Strait of Hormuz from Iranian waters near Jask. 

US President Donald Trump has threatened to attack again if Tehran does not come to an agreement. Speaking to reporters, Trump said that Iran responded to the attack on a US military ship. 

'After this, there was firing between the two countries, we have completely destroyed them and sunk many of their small boats. We cannot give them the right to have nuclear weapons,' Trump said. 

Meanwhile, Arsenio Dominguez, secretary-general of the United Nations maritime agency IMO, said that more than 1,500 ships are stranded in the Gulf region due to the Strait of Hormuz. Of these, about 20,000 crew members are stranded.
