An Iranian gunboat fired on a container vessel near Oman, claiming it was in response to the US seizure of an Iranian commercial ship. The UKMTO reported that the vessel was approached by the IRGC before shots were fired, causing heavy damage but no casualties. The ship was under a Liberian flag and had permission to pass through the Strait of Hormuz. The IRGC accused the US of violating a ceasefire and engaging in armed piracy. President Trump announced a delay in military action against Iran, citing the need for a unified proposal from Iranian leaders.
