Iran and the US report a new wave of attacks in the Persian Gulf

The US have said they have hit Iranian military bases over the weekend, while Tehran said it has responded by targeting an American base, marking the third known escalation within a week about Hormuz Strait.

The U.S. Central Command (Centcom) said it launched"self-defence attacks"in response to an Iranian aggressive action", which, according to it, included the collapse of an American threat on international waters, reports the BBC, broadcast. Periscope

Meanwhile, Iran's Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps (IRGC) said it had targeted an air base used by American forces for an attack on southern Iran, but did not say where.


This is the last exchange between the two sides after negotiations on an agreement to end their several-month war failed to advance over the weekend, with US media reporting that President Trump had sought changes in its terms.


The changes are related to Hormuz Strait shipping channel and the removal of highly enriched uranium, the BBC's American news partner reported, CBS News. The White House did not respond to a request for comment.


Iran's leading negotiator said Sunday Tehran would not agree to any agreement if Iran's rights were not fully secured.

The US Army said that on Saturday and Sunday it had carried out"self-protective attacks on Iranian radar and command and drone control sites in Gorac, Iran and the island of Smile".



In an X post, Centcom said American fighters hit Iranian Army air protection, a land control station and two fears that said"posed a clear threat to ships passing through regional waters". No US personnel were injured in the attacks, the military said.


The IRC said it targeted the air base the United States had used to carry out attacks on its communication tower on the island of Sirri in the Persian Gulf, about 40 miles (65km) from Iran's southern coastline.


Iran's military added that its response would be"strictly different"if American aggression"repeated", according to IRC remarks reported by Iran's semi-official Fars news agency.


Kuwait's military said Monday it was facing antix0> with hostile missile attacks and fearing"using its air defence systems, but did not specify where the wiretapping was taking place.


Tehran targeted an air base in Kuwait last week in response to previous US air strikes, which he said were carried out to prevent Iranian ships and missile attacks from placing mines around the boat canal.


As a ceasefire went into effect on 8 April, Donald Trump has repeatedly suggested that the US and Iran are close to a permanent agreement and that negotiations are progressing, but no formal agreement has been reached so far.

Trump and top aides met on Friday to get a final"decision on a framework for extending the ceasefire, but the meeting ended without any clarity on further steps before reports released later that the president had requested changes to the text. /Periscope
