It didn’t take long for Iran to violate the Memorandum of Understanding (MOU) imposed ceasefire. The MOU was signed by Iran and the US on June 17, and eight days later, Iran, in an unprovoked drone strike, hit the Singapore-flagged commercial cargo vessel, M/V Ever Lovely, exiting the Strait of Hormuz along the Omani coast. Iran used the excuse that it was enforcing what it believes to be Iranian regulations controlling the waterway. Again, on Saturday, June 27, Iran attacked the Panamanian-Flagged tanker the M/T Kiku in the Strait. On Sunday, June 28, Iran launched air strikes on Kuwait and Bahrain against US military facilities. A US response was not long in coming.
US Central Command reported, “US aircraft struck Iranian missile and drone storage locations and coastal radar sites after Iran hit M/V Ever Lovely on June 25 with a one-way attack drone. The Singapore-flagged cargo ship was exiting the Strait of Hormuz along the Omani coast at the time of Iran’s attack.”
