Iran has expanded the no-go zone around the Strait of Hormuz as the US and Tehran trade strikes in the six-month conflict.
- The Revolutionary Guard said it attacked 20 ships in the Strait of Hormuz and expanded its no-go zone to parts of the Gulf of Oman; US Central Command denied the strikes.
- Jordan's army said it intercepted 18 of 20 Iranian ballistic missiles fired at a US base, while US media reported minor damage to eight F-15 aircraft.
- Trump said the war will end immediately after November's midterm elections and that the US controls the Strait; advisers reportedly warned it could last until 2029.
- The IAEA Board of Governors voted to refer Iran to the UN Security Council over nuclear non-compliance, a move Iran condemned.
