Headline: UNCAPTIONED: Ceasefire Under Strain As Israel And Iran Exchange New Strikes
Caption: Ceasefire Under Strain As Israel And Iran Exchange New Strikes. Israel said it struck the Mahshahr petrochemical plant in Iran and targeted additional military sites across the country. The attack followed Iranian missile strikes on Israel, launched in response to Israeli operations against targets in Lebanon over the weekend. The latest escalation marks Israel’s first strike on an Iranian energy facility since the ceasefire took effect in April. Yemen’s Iran-backed Houthi movement also threatened to halt Israeli maritime navigation in the Red Sea. Israel’s military said it activated air defence systems to intercept a Houthi missile, the first such attack since the truce began. President Donald Trump said the renewed fighting would not derail ongoing US-led negotiations with Tehran aimed at ending the wider conflict. Trump has reportedly urged Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu to limit military action in Lebanon to preserve diplomatic efforts. Despite the latest exchange of strikes, Trump insisted a broader agreement remains achievable, saying he believes a deal is still within reach.
