Ceasefire is hanging by a thread.
Back-and-forth strikes may signal the end of the ceasefire between the US and Iran, just as the seemingly promising peace negotiations stall and an agreement fails to materialize.
Today, it has been reported that after the US struck southern Iran on Thursday, Tehran retaliated by striking an American military base, reportedly in Kuwait.
These exchanges are the most serious clashes since the April ceasefire began.

The Telegraph reported:
“The fresh fighting appeared to begin when Iranian forces fired at four ships attempting to cross the Strait, state broadcaster IRIB reported on Thursday.
American forces then targeted a ground control station near the southern Iranian city of Bandar Abbas that posed a threat to commercial maritime traffic in the strategic waterway.”
Iran’s Revolutionary Guard released footage showing the launch of missiles toward the U.S. base in Kuwait, describing it as retaliation for the American attack near Bandar Abbas in southern Iran.

The US military also reportedly intercepted and shot down four Iranian kamikaze drones that posed a similar threat.
The US struck Bandar Abbas thereby preventing a fifth drone from being launched.
“Shortly after the US strikes, the IRGC said it had targeted a US air base in retaliation. It did not provide details of the location of the base, though Kuwait, a US ally, said it was responding to missile and drone attacks on Thursday morning.”

This was the exchange of fire in three days.
At this point, it’s unclear whether the peace talks still have any chance of succeeding.
