U.S. Strikes Iran's Qeshm Island as Trump Plays Down War Risk

Original: Exclusive | U.S. Strikes Iran’s Qeshm Island as Trump Talks Down War Risks

The Wall Street Journal reports that the United States carried out strikes on Iran's Qeshm Island in the Persian Gulf, even as President Trump publicly sought to minimise the risk of a wider war with Tehran. The reported strike on Iranian territory marks a significant escalation, and the contrast between military action and the administration's conciliatory rhetoric is drawing intense attention.

Why now: A reported U.S. strike on Iranian soil is a major escalation in tensions between the two countries.
