Tensions between the United States and Iran flared dramatically on Thursday when naval forces from both sides exchanged fire in the Gulf, raising serious concerns about the fragile ceasefire that had been holding since April 7. The fighting put a month-old truce under serious strain and cast fresh doubt on diplomatic efforts to bring the conflict — sparked by joint U.S.-Israeli airstrikes on Iran on February 28 — to a negotiated close. Despite the violence, President Donald Trump insisted the ceasefire was still technically in place and downplayed the incident with characteristic bluntness.
