President Trump said the U.S. conducted “minor strikes” on Iran after Iranian media reported two missiles struck Qeshm Island near the Strait of Hormuz. The exchange marks a fresh escalation between Washington and Tehran in a waterway that carries roughly a fifth of global oil supply. Traders will watch crude prices and shipping traffic through Hormuz for signs of disruption, and whether both sides keep the response limited or retaliate further.
