As President Donald Trump pushes for a peace deal with Iran, the battle is continuing over the Strait of Hormuz after Iranian state media published a highly produced video that it claimed showed the interception and seizure of two cargo ships.
The White House says the attacks don’t violate the president’s newly extended ceasefire and don’t threaten his blockade.
