The day before, it was reported that Tehran canceled technical talks with Washington scheduled for Sunday, June 28, due to an exchange of strikes between the parties in the Strait of Hormuz.

On June 26, Trump announced that Iran had violated the ceasefire in the Strait of Hormuz. According to the American leader, the Islamic Republic launched at least four drones at ships traveling through the Strait of Hormuz, one of the drones hit the upper deck of a cargo ship. The United States and Iran exchanged blows.

Later, Trump criticized Iran for the incident, noting that he "doesn't like it" and Tehran "shouldn't do that." Iranian Foreign Minister Abbas Araqchi stressed that any interference in the situation in the Strait of Hormuz would lead to an escalation in the waters.
