White House Weighs New Strikes on Iran Amid Truce Collapse

President Donald Trump is considering new military strikes against Iran after the collapse of a truce agreement, as the U.S. demands the reopening of the Strait of Hormuz.

Iran's Revolutionary Guard reported striking two tankers in the Strait of Hormuz on July 31, 2026, while Kuwait intercepted drones, escalating regional tensions despite ongoing diplomatic talks.

Key U.S. officials including Vice President JD Vance and Secretary of State Marco Rubio are managing negotiations, even as Iran threatens to target U.S. energy assets if attacked.
