ট্রাম্পের হুমকির পর ইরানে মার্কিন হামলা, কয়েকটি শহরে বিস্ফোরণ, হরমুজ প্রণালি বন্ধ

Following President Donald Trump's threat of a 'tough' attack, the US has launched new attacks on Iran. Explosions were reported in several Iranian cities, including Bandar Abbas. Iran has responded by closing the Strait of Hormuz to all maritime traffic.

The US Central Command (CENTCOM) confirmed the attacks, stating they were defensive operations in response to Iran's aggression. Specific targets of the attacks have not been disclosed. Iranian media reported large explosions in Bandar Abbas and other southern cities, with Tehran activating its air defense systems.

There have been no immediate reports of casualties or damage from the attacks. This escalation follows previous exchanges of attacks between the US and Iran, including a US helicopter crash in the Strait of Hormuz and retaliatory strikes by Iran on US bases in Jordan, Kuwait, and Bahrain.

President Trump accused Iran of delaying negotiations and warned of consequences. Iran, in turn, accused the US of violating ceasefires and announced a reevaluation of diplomatic communications with Washington. Despite the tensions, diplomatic efforts to de-escalate the situation continue, with a Qatari delegation visiting Tehran.
