Ukraine Drones Hit Moscow as US-Iran Tensions Escalate in Strait of Hormuz
Ukrainian President Zelensky issued a ceasefire proposal to Russia following a Ukrainian drone strike on a Moscow residential high-rise, part of an intensified long-range drone campaign. Separately, U.S. military forces struck Iranian fast boats in the Strait of Hormuz after Iran attacked a UAE oil facility, while a U.S.-flagged commercial vessel exited the strait under military escort. President Trump issued a public warning that Iranian attacks on U.S. vessels would be met with overwhelming force.
