IRAN fired on three ships in the Strait of Hormuz and seized two of them today.

This came a day after United States President Donald Trump extended a ceasefire while maintaining the US blockade of Iranian ports.

Iranian media said that the paramilitary Revolutionary Guard was bringing the two ships to Iran after seizing them in the strategically and economically important strait.

The duelling blockades of the strait have continued the doubts about when or if talks would resume to end the crisis.
