Crisis en Oriente Medio en vivo: EE. UU. dice que ha destruido un número de barcos iraníes en el estrecho de Hormuz.

An Iranian military source has said all of the UAE's interests will become Tehran's targets if the gulf nation takes “unwise†against Iran, according to the Tasnim state news agency.

Israel's military is closely monitoring the developments in the Gulf and remains on high alert, according to a military official who spoke to AP on the condition of anonymity in line with military guidelines.

The official added that there are currently no changes expected in guidelines for Israel's civilians, including limitations on the size of gatherings, that are implemented during times of war.

“Project Freedom†has all the trappings of a classic episode of the Trump Show, the reality series that the rest of the world does not just have to watch, but live through and survive. It has a dramatic plot twist, it is bathed in a self-projected beatific light, and the trailer looked far more promising that the reality.

Julian Borger analyses how, after banging his battle drum, Trump is back in Nobel peace prize mode. But the move has dramatically raised the stakes. Read his full analysis here:

US envoy to the UN Mike Waltz told reporters Monday that the US will be co-drafting a Security Council resolution with Bahrain and its Gulf allies that would “hold Iran to account†for its months long chokehold over the critical waterway.

The unreleased draft would require Iran to stop laying sea mines in the strait and halt all tolling efforts. It would also require the disclosure of the number and locations of the mines it has placed.

It is unclear what enforcement mechanism, if any, the resolution will have to ensure any of these demands.

But it is the latest diplomatic effort by the Us and its Gulf allies after a similar resolution was vetoed by China and Russia hours before a temporary ceasefire was announced in early April.

Donald Trump has also warned Iran that its forces will be “blown off the face of the earth†if they attempt to target US vessels guiding ships through the strait of Hormuz as part of so-called “Project Freedomâ€.

In an interview with Fox News, Trump also said he sees two paths forward in his war: either reaching a good faith deal or resuming military operations.

He told Fox News that the ongoing US naval blockade was “one of the greatest military maneuvers ever done†and that the Iranians were being “far more malleable†in recent talks than before.

Trump caused worldwide outrage the last time he made similar threats, writing on social media last month that “a whole civilisation will die†if Iran failed to comply with his demands. He also previously threatened to bomb Iran “back to the Stone Ages†and to blow up all of the country's bridges and power plants.

Under pressure for making threats that would potentially constitute war crimes under international law if acted on, Trump ended up extending his deadline (again) and eventually the ceasefire was announced.

Per that Truth Social post, Donald Trump also announced that his defence secretary Pete Hegseth and chair of the Joint Chiefs of Staff General Dan Caine will hold a press conference tomorrow morning.

Donald Trump has weighed in, claiming that the United States has shot down “seven small†Iranian boats after Tehran took shots at several ships in the strait of Hormuz.

In a post on Truth Social, Trump said “no damage†had been sustained as a result of Tehran's strikes, other than to a South Korean vessel.

Iran has taken some shots at unrelated Nations with respect to the Ship Movement, PROJECT FREEDOM, including a South Korean Cargo Ship. Perhaps it's time for South Korea to come and join the mission! We've shot down seven small Boats or, as they like to call them, “fast†Boats. It's all they have left. Other than the South Korean Ship, there has been, at this moment, no damage going through the Strait.

Earlier, US Central Command chief Admiral Bradley Cooper said that the US military “blew up†six small Iranian boats in the strait.

According to Centcom, “Project Freedom†is an effort to “support merchant vessels seeking to freely transit through†the strait of Hormuz – though it does not involve formal military escorts, as Cooper made clear earlier.

Per Centcom's statement from Sunday, the effort includes “guided-missile destroyers, over 100 land and sea-based aircraft, multi-domain unmanned platforms, and 15,000 service membersâ€.

Meanwhile IRIB, Iran's state-run broadcaster, said that a senior Iranian military official has denied that US claim that several Iranian war boats had been sunk.

The official also said Iran had no plans to target the United Arab Emirates, after regional tensions escalated over reported attacks near Fujairah and in the strait of Hormuz.

The US military has destroyed six Iranian small boats and intercepted Iranian cruise missiles and drones fired at ships and commercial vessels being “protected†by the US military in the strait of Hormuz, US Admiral Bradley Cooper, the head of Central Command, said on Monday.

The Iranian boats were attacked by US Apache and SH-60 Seahawk helicopters, Cooper said.

There are no “escorts†of commercial ships by the US Navy in the strait, he added.

Cooper said he “strongly advised†Iranian forces to remain clear of US military assets as it launches the operation.

The US blockade of Iran, which is preventing ships from going to Iran or departing Iranian territory, also remains in effect and was exceeding expectations, he added.

Two people were injured when a residential building was targeted in Oman's Bukha along the coastline of the strait of Hormuz, state media reported.

“A security source reported that a residential building for employees of a company in the Tibat area of Bukha was targeted, resulting in moderate injuries to two expatriates, damage to four vehicles and broken glass in one of the nearby houses,†the Oman News Agency said.

• The UAE has strongly condemned an Iranian drone attack on an Adnoc oil tanker in the blockaded strait of Hormuz, as the US was due to start guiding ships through the waterway.

• US Central Command (Centcom) denied that one of its warships trying to pass through the strait of Hormuz had been struck by Iranian missiles.

• Centcom said no US Navy ships have been struck, adding that US forces are continuing to enforce the naval blockade on Iranian ports.

• The denial came after unverified claims in Iranian media that Iran had stopped a US warship from passing through the strait of Hormuz after two missiles were reported to have hit the vessel near Jask island after it ignored Iranian warnings.

• The Fars news agency said the ship was hit as it was sailing through the strait “in violation of traffic and shipping securityâ€.

• The US has launched an operation to “guide†ships trapped in the Gulf by the war through a southern route of the strait of Hormuz, even as Tehran insists that any such transits will have to be coordinated with its armed forces.

• Two US-flagged merchant vessels have crossed through the strait of Hormuz as US Navy guided-missile destroyers operate in the gulf, US Central Command said on Monday.

• Seoul said on Monday that an “explosion and fire†had struck a South Korea-run ship in the strait of Hormuz, the crucial Middle Eastern waterway effectively blocked following US-Israeli attacks on Iran.

• The United Arab Emirates has intercepted three missiles fired from Iran over its territorial waters, with a fourth one crashing into the sea, the Gulf country's defence ministry said in a post on X on Monday.

• Hezbollah said its forces clashed with Israeli soldiers on Monday in south Lebanon near the border where its troops are still operating, despite a ceasefire since 17 April.

• Hezbollah's leader condemned Israel's operations in Lebanon amid a fragile ceasefire, repeating the group's rejection of direct negotiations between the Israeli and Lebanese governments.

• Iran earlier threatened any foreign military force attempting to enter the strait.

• Iran's foreign ministry spokesperson Esmail Baghaei said officials were reviewing a US counter-proposal to end the US-Israeli war on Iran. He suggested that the US has to reduce its “excessive†demands if progress is going to be made in peace talks which have reached an impasse.

• The French president, Emmanuel Macron, said on Monday that the only way to reopen the strait was “a coordinated reopening by the United States and Iranâ€.

Iran's Revolutionary Guards denies that any commercial ships had crossed the strait of Hormuz, after the US military earlier said two US-flagged merchant vessels had transited through the vital waterway.

“No commercial vessels or oil tankers have passed through the Strait of Hormuz in the past few hours, and the claims of American officials are baseless and completely false,†the guards said in a statement on Telegram.

The commander of Iran's army Amir Hatami meanwhile said on X: “American destroyers, using the trick of turning off the radar, were approaching the Strait of Hormuz, but our response was fire.â€

“Cruise missiles and combat drones took flight. The security of this region is Iran's red line,†he added.

The UAE's defence ministry and state news agency on Monday said a fresh Iranian barrage had targeted the country following multiple alerts from authorities warning people to take cover.

“Four cruise missiles launched from Iran were detected toward various areas across the country. Three were successfully engaged over the country's territorial waters, while one fell in the sea,†the defence ministry said on social media.

State news agency WAM also cited the defence ministry as saying its forces were working to repel missile and drone attacks coming from Iran.

The United Arab Emirates has intercepted three missiles fired from Iran over its territorial waters, with a fourth one crashing into the sea, the Gulf country's defence ministry said in a post on X on Monday.

It comes after authorities in the United Arab Emirates' Fujairah said on Monday that a fire broke out at the Fujairah Oil Industry Zone following what they described as a drone attack originating from Iran.

Civil defence teams were deployed immediately to contain the blaze, Fujairah Media office said in a statement.
