Iran Says New U.S. Strikes Undid Months of Diplomacy

Iran's Foreign Ministry said early Monday that the latest U.S. strike wave had destroyed months of efforts to lower tensions and restore calm in the region. Tehran accused Washington of violating the June ceasefire framework and disrupting shipping arrangements in the Strait of Hormuz, while warning Gulf states not to let their territory be used for attacks on Iran. U.S. Central Command said the renewed strikes were ordered to hold Iranian forces accountable and degrade their ability to threaten commercial vessels. Independent reporting described the escalating exchange as pushing Tehran-Washington negotiations to the edge of collapse.
