The U.K. maritime agency reports that an Iranian Revolutionary Guard vessel opened fire on a container ship in the Strait of Hormuz, damaging its bridge. All crew members are safe and there was no fire or environmental impact, according to the British military’s Maritime Trade Operations center. State-linked Nour News said the ship ignored warnings before being struck. The attack comes after the US extended a two-week ceasefire until Iran delivers a unified proposal to end hostilities with the US and Israel.
