Iran is forcing the U.S. into an escalation trap as a ‘shadow war’ over the Strait of Hormuz heats up that could kill the tenuous ceasefire

The U.S. and Iran have agreed to halt kinetic activity and will meet in Qatar's capital this Tuesday to resolve disputes over the Strait of Hormuz. This ceasefire, only 11 days old, remains unstable due to renewed strikes and conflicting interpretations of the memorandum of understanding (MOU). While both sides aim to stop attacks, tensions persist as Iran allegedly pushes the U.S. into an escalation trap, threatening the tenuous peace between the two nations.
