Event details
The U.S. carried out strikes on Iran after Trump announced a reinstated naval blockade targeting Iranian ports near the Strait of Hormuz, reversing the blockade lifted under the June MOU. Trump separately rejected any toll or fee scheme for transiting the strait.
Context
Restoring the blockade undoes the MOU's single clearest concession to Iran, confirming both sides now consider the June deal defunct rather than under strain.
