A US Navy ship turned back after Iran warned it would be attacked within 30 minutes if it entered the Strait of Hormuz. The warning came as US and Iranian officials held talks in Islamabad. Hours later, US media reported that two American warships crossed the strait without coordination. US officials said the transit happened without issues. Iran’s state TV denied this. Earlier, Donald Trump said the US had begun “clearing out” the strait. He claimed Iran’s mine-laying boats were destroyed. The brief standoff highlighted rising tension despite ongoing talks.
