A Singapore-flagged container ship sank after being hit by a projectile in the Strait of Hormuz, and all 21 crew members escaped safely.
A second Singapore-flagged vessel was also struck in the strait, U.S. Central Command said American forces and regional partners clearly control the waterway, a claim disputed by Iran's Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps, while the Iran-backed Houthi group is reported to be developing advanced ballistic missiles using Chinese components with an estimated range of about 1,200 miles, and President Trump said he does not intend to launch new attacks before the November midterm elections.
