Trump's threat to Iran: Hormuz tension pushes ceasefire to brink of war

Tensions between the US and Iran have escalated around the Strait of Hormuz, with a ceasefire in jeopardy.
According to an Al Jazeera report, US President Donald Trump has warned Iran that it will face severe consequences if it attacks American ships. The US claims its military is providing a safe passage for commercial ships, while Iran says the Strait of Hormuz is fully under its control. US officials claim that 7 Iranian boats have been destroyed, although Iran has denied this claim.
Arab media has confirmed that a South Korean ship was attacked and caught fire, while there are reports of 2 other ships also catching fire. Yesterday, Iran launched missile and drone attacks on the United Arab Emirates, resulting in a fire at the Fujairah oil zone and injuring 3 people. The UAE has strongly condemned the attack and reserved the right to respond.
Meanwhile, oil prices continue to rise in the global market, with petrol prices in the US exceeding $4.45 per gallon, leading to increased inflation. The US military says it has diverted 50 commercial ships to ensure security in the region, while several countries' ships remain stranded.
Tensions between Iran and the US have increased in the Strait of Hormuz, with Iran claiming that a US warship was targeted with missiles, which the US has denied.
According to the Iranian news agency, a US ship entered the Iranian port of Jask and was warned to leave, but after ignoring the warning, 2 missiles were fired at it, forcing it to retreat.
On the other hand, the US military has stated on social media that no such incident occurred. According to an Al Jazeera report, this development comes as Iranian military leaders had warned that US forces entering the Strait of Hormuz would be targeted.
Iran says it will maintain the security of this vital waterway at all costs. The report claims that preparations for a possible long war are also underway in Iran.
Iranian authorities are trying to restore their missile and drone capabilities, while internet restrictions are in place, affecting over 90 million people. The Iranian government has also launched a 'martyrdom' campaign, urging the public to be prepared for sacrifice. According to Iranian authorities, 31 million people have joined the campaign, although foreign media reports have questioned these numbers.
US President Donald Trump has said that oil prices will drop sharply once the war is over. He says he feels the same way he did 50 years ago.
Addressing a business summit in Washington, Trump said that when a person's health deteriorates, it becomes apparent, just like it did in the previous US administration. He expressed his eagerness to meet with the Chinese president, saying the visit to China would be important.
Trump claimed that 159 Iranian ships were sunk, and he wished that they had been seized instead. He added that the US spent 19 years in Vietnam and 7 years in Korea, and now people are wondering why it's taking so long in the case of Iran. Trump left the event without responding to journalists' questions about the Iran war.
