U.S. announces new strikes on Iran as Trump declares the ceasefire over

The U.S. military launched new strikes against Iranian military targets on Wednesday, marking the second consecutive night of fighting. President Trump declared the U.S.-brokered ceasefire with Tehran is over, escalating Washington's military response to Iran's attacks on commercial shipping in the Strait of Hormuz. This action represents the worst escalation since talks to end the war began, as the U.S. continues its military operations following the official termination of the ceasefire agreement.
