The US has carried out a series of defensive strikes on Iranian locations near Hormuz. Two U.S. officials described the strikes as limited in scope and defensive, and the Wall Street Journal first reported them on Monday. One official said Monday's U.S. airstrikes on Qeshm Island were a response to an Iranian attack on a U.S. aircraft.
Explosions were heard on Qeshm Island. Iranian state media later said several explosions were heard there.
In a Truth Social post on Monday, President Trump said a deal could happen. He also said Iran wants a settlement as soon as possible.
