Trump Bombs Iran Just Hours After Announcing, 'We Won'

Qeshm Island, Iran ·

The Wall Street Journal, citing US officials, reported that Washington quietly carried out the strike on Qeshm Island on the same day President Donald Trump declared victory in the conflict and said American forces had not been fighting for months.

Qeshm is Iran's largest island and lies in the Strait of Hormuz, a key route for Gulf oil exports. Tensions between Washington and Tehran have centred on Iran's nuclear programme and the strait.
